Class WELL607

java.lang.Object
  extended by umontreal.iro.lecuyer.rng.RandomStreamBase
      extended by umontreal.iro.lecuyer.rng.WELL607
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, CloneableRandomStream, RandomStream

public class WELL607
extends RandomStreamBase

This class implements the RandomStream interface via inheritance from RandomStreamBase. The backbone generator is a Well Equidistributed Long period Linear Random Number Generator (WELL), proposed by F. Panneton. The implemented generator is the WELL607, which has a state size of 607 bits and a period length of approximatively 2607. The values of V, W and Z are 2150, 2250 and 2400 respectively (see RandomStream for their definition). The seed of the RNG, and the state of a stream at any given step, is a 19-dimensional vector of 32-bit integers. The output of nextValue has 32 bits of precision.

Constructor Detail

WELL607

public WELL607()
Constructs a new stream.


WELL607

public WELL607(String name)
Constructs a new stream with the identifier name (used in the toString method).

Parameters:
name - name of the stream
Method Detail

setPackageSeed

public static void setPackageSeed(int[] seed)
Sets the initial seed of the class WELL607 to the 19 integers of the vector seed[0..18]. This will be the initial seed of the next created stream. At least one of the integers must not be zero and if this integer is the last one, it must not be equal to 0x80000000.

Parameters:
seed - array of 19 elements representing the seed

setSeed

public void setSeed(int[] seed)
This method is discouraged for normal use. Initializes the stream at the beginning of a stream with the initial seed seed[0..18]. The seed must satisfy the same conditions as in setPackageSeed. This method only affects the specified stream; the others are not modified. Hence after calling this method, the beginning of the streams will no longer be spaced Z values apart. For this reason, this method should only be used in very exceptional cases; proper use of the reset... methods and of the stream constructor is preferable.

Parameters:
seed - array of 19 elements representing the seed

getState

public int[] getState()
Returns the current state of the stream, represented as an array of 19 integers.

Returns:
the current state of the stream

resetStartStream

public void resetStartStream()
Description copied from interface: RandomStream
Reinitializes the stream to its initial state Ig: Cg and Bg are set to Ig.

Specified by:
resetStartStream in interface RandomStream
Specified by:
resetStartStream in class RandomStreamBase

resetStartSubstream

public void resetStartSubstream()
Description copied from interface: RandomStream
Reinitializes the stream to the beginning of its current substream: Cg is set to Bg.

Specified by:
resetStartSubstream in interface RandomStream
Specified by:
resetStartSubstream in class RandomStreamBase

resetNextSubstream

public void resetNextSubstream()
Description copied from interface: RandomStream
Reinitializes the stream to the beginning of its next substream: Ng is computed, and Cg and Bg are set to Ng.

Specified by:
resetNextSubstream in interface RandomStream
Specified by:
resetNextSubstream in class RandomStreamBase

toString

public String toString()
Description copied from interface: RandomStream
Returns a string containing the current state of this stream.

Specified by:
toString in interface RandomStream
Specified by:
toString in class RandomStreamBase
Returns:
the state of the generator formated as a string

clone

public WELL607 clone()
Clones the current generator and return its copy.

Specified by:
clone in interface CloneableRandomStream
Returns:
A deep copy of the current generator
