It -- also provides types for representing initialization values and snapshots of -- internal generator state, which permit reproducible pseudo-random streams. -- The generator currently provided by this package has an extremely long -- period (at least 2**19937-1), and passes the Big Crush test suite, with the -- exception of the two linear complexity tests. Therefore, it is suitable for -- simulations, but should not be used as a cryptographic pseudo-random source -- without additional processing. -- The design of this package effects is simplified compared to the design -- of standard Ada.Numerics packages. There is no separate State type; the -- Generator type itself suffices for this purpose. The parameter modes on -- Reset procedures better reflect the effect of these routines. with System.Random_Numbers; with Interfaces; use Interfaces; package GNAT.Random_Numbers is type Generator is limited private; subtype Initialization_Vector is System.Random_Numbers.Initialization_Vector; function Random (Gen : Generator) return Float; function Random (Gen : Generator) return Long_Float; -- Return pseudo-random numbers uniformly distributed on [0 .. 1) function Random (Gen : Generator) return Interfaces.Integer_32; function Random (Gen : Generator) return Interfaces.Unsigned_32; function Random (Gen : Generator) return Interfaces.Integer_64; function Random (Gen : Generator) return Interfaces.Unsigned_64; function Random (Gen : Generator) return Integer; function Random (Gen : Generator) return Long_Integer; -- Return pseudo-random numbers uniformly distributed on T'First ..
