C# Class YAMP.Numerics.Generator

Declares common functionality for all random number generators.

Public Methods

Method	Description
Next ( ) : int	Returns a nonnegative random number less than MaxValue.
Next ( int maxValue ) : int	Returns a nonnegative random number less than the specified maximum.
Next ( int minValue, int maxValue ) : int	Returns a random number within the specified range.
NextBoolean ( ) : bool	Returns a random Boolean value. Buffers 31 random bits for future calls, so the random number generator is only invoked once in every 31 calls.
NextBytes ( byte buffer ) : void	Fills the elements of a specified array of bytes with random numbers. Each element of the array of bytes is set to a random number greater than or equal to 0, and less than or equal to Byte.MaxValue.
NextDouble ( ) : double	Returns a nonnegative floating point random number less than 1.0.
NextDouble ( double maxValue ) : double	Returns a nonnegative floating point random number less than the specified maximum.
NextDouble ( double minValue, double maxValue ) : double	Returns a floating point random number within the specified range.
Reset ( ) : bool	Resets the random number generator, so that it produces the same random number sequence again.

Returns a nonnegative random number less than MaxValue.

public abstract Next ( ) : int
return	int

Returns a nonnegative random number less than the specified maximum.

public abstract Next ( int maxValue ) : int
maxValue	int	/// The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. /// must be greater than or equal to 0. ///
return	int

Returns a random number within the specified range.

public abstract Next ( int minValue, int maxValue ) : int
minValue	int	/// The inclusive lower bound of the random number to be generated. ///
maxValue	int	/// The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. /// MaxValue must be greater than or equal to MinValue. ///
return	int

Returns a random Boolean value.

Buffers 31 random bits for future calls, so the random number generator is only invoked once in every 31 calls.

public abstract NextBoolean ( ) : bool
return	bool

Fills the elements of a specified array of bytes with random numbers.

Each element of the array of bytes is set to a random number greater than or equal to 0, and less than or equal to Byte.MaxValue.

public abstract NextBytes ( byte buffer ) : void
buffer	byte	An array of bytes to contain random numbers.
return	void

Returns a nonnegative floating point random number less than 1.0.

public abstract NextDouble ( ) : double
return	double

Returns a nonnegative floating point random number less than the specified maximum.

public abstract NextDouble ( double maxValue ) : double
maxValue	double	/// The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. /// MaxValue must be greater than or equal to 0.0. ///
return	double

Returns a floating point random number within the specified range.

public abstract NextDouble ( double minValue, double maxValue ) : double
minValue	double	/// The inclusive lower bound of the random number to be generated. /// The range between and MaxValue must be less than or equal to /// MaxValue. ///
maxValue	double	/// The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. /// MaxValue must be greater than or equal to . /// The range between and must be less than or equal to /// . ///
return	double

Resets the random number generator, so that it produces the same random number sequence again.

public abstract Reset ( ) : bool
return	bool
