couldnt get normal means to work well so.. here's anyway a quote from the .h:Full Version: c++ random numbers
I found out this usefull class after searching for a bit, so I thought to let you all know about its existence couldnt get normal means to work well so.. here's anyway a quote from the .h:
couldnt get normal means to work well so.. here's anyway a quote from the .h:| CODE |
| // This C++ code uses the simple, very fast "KISS" (Keep It Simple // Stupid) random number generator suggested by George Marsaglia in a // Usenet posting from 1999. He describes it as "one of my favorite // generators". It generates high-quality random numbers that // apparently pass all commonly used tests for randomness. In fact, it // generates random numbers by combining the results of three other good // random number generators that have different periods and are // constructed from completely different algorithms. It does not have // the ultra-long period of some other generators - a "problem" that can // be fixed fairly easily - but that seems to be its only potential // problem. The period is about 2^123. |

I had to make a bit of tweaking to make it compile on my university's g++ compiler which enforces pretty strict rules for ANSI-C++ and such things, for those who are interested.. the modified .h is available here (just removed the static consts and initiated the double's in the constructor):

(I'm not sure if I should put this to news instead, this isnt really a support request but rather sharing a solution to something)
Thanks DeepOne...I filed that away. I'm very new to C, and every example helps.

No, it's in the right place mate.
It's not news and the software/hardware forums are not just for support, but also for general discussion or software solutions and tips/tricks like this one.

good to hear that mate if I'll come by with something, I will post it up..
