biu::RNG_ISO Class Reference
#include <RandomNumberGenerator.hh>
Inheritance diagram for biu::RNG_ISO:
Detailed Description
An object of this class works as a random number generator. This implementation maps to the rand & srand ISO C random number functions. The random numbers derived from a particular seed value will differ on different CPU types and C librarys. For a defined set of random numbers, one of it's subclasses should be used.

Member Function Documentation
| RandomNumberGenerator * biu::RNG_ISO::copy | ( | void | ) | [virtual] |
Creates a new Copy of this object.
Implements biu::RandomNumberGenerator.

| unsigned int biu::RNG_ISO::getMaxRN | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Returns the largest value the rand function will return.
Implements biu::RandomNumberGenerator.
Definition at line 32 of file RandomNumberGenerator.cc.
| unsigned int biu::RNG_ISO::getRN | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Returns the next random number in the series. It's value will be in [0, getMaxRN()].
Implements biu::RandomNumberGenerator.
Definition at line 26 of file RandomNumberGenerator.cc.
| void biu::RNG_ISO::setSeed | ( | unsigned int | _seed | ) | [virtual] |
Specifies the seed value used for random number generation. Because this implementation maps to ISO C rand & srand this will not be specific to an object, it will affect the "global" seed value.
