dSFMT Documentation
1.3
This is double precision SIMD oriented Fast Mersenne Twister pseudorandom number generator (dSFMT). This program is based on the IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic (ANSI/IEEE Std 754-1985) format.
This version uses structure of C language. Don't use different DSFMT_MEXP for compiling dSFMT.c and your program.
This Project provides pseudorandom number generators of various Mersenne Prime Period: from 2607-1 to 2216091-1.
To get dSFMT which has the period of 2607-1, you have to specify -DMEXP=607 as a compile option. For example,
gcc -DDSFMT_MEXP=607 -msse2 -DHAVE_SSE2 -c dSFMT.c
will make dSFMT which has the period of 2607-1 and is optimized for SSE2.
See How to compile to compile your program with SFMT optimized for SIMD.
- void dsfmt_init_gen_rand() initializes the generator with a 32-bit integer seed.
- void dsfmt_init_by_array() initializes the generator with an array of 32-bit integers as the seeds.
- const char * dsfmt_get_idstring() returns the IDSTRING which identify the generator.
- int dsfmt_get_min_array_size() returns the minimum size of array used for fill_array functions.
- inline double dsfmt_genrand_close1_open2() generates and returns a double precision pseudorandom number which distributes uniformly in the range [1, 2). This is the primitive and faster than generating numbers in other ranges.
- inline double dsfmt_genrand_close_open() generates and returns a double precision pseudorandom number which distributes uniformly in the range [0, 1).
- inline double dsfmt_genrand_open_close() generates and returns a double precision pseudorandom number which distributes uniformly in the range (0, 1].
- inline double dsfmt_genrand_open_open() generates and returns a double precision pseudorandom number which distributes uniformly in the range (0, 1).
- void dsfmt_fill_array_close1_open2() fills the user-specified array with double precision pseudorandom numbers which distribute uniformly in the range [1, 2).
- void dsfmt_fill_array_close_open() fills the user-specified array with double precision pseudorandom numbers which distribute uniformly in the range [0, 1).
- void dsfmt_fill_array_open_close() fills the user-specified array with double precision pseudorandom numbers which distribute uniformly in the range (0, 1].
- void dsfmt_fill_array_open_open() fills the user-specified array with double precision pseudorandom numbers which distribute uniformly in the range (0, 1).
Old names init_gen_rand, init_by_array, etc. are also defined unless you define DSFMT_DO_NOT_USE_OLD_NAMES.
