Is a random number engine that uses subtract with carry algorithm.

The state of a subtract_with_carry_engine consists of a sequence {X
i
} (0 ≤ i <r)
, every X
i
is in interval [0, 2w
)
.

Let all subscripts applied to sequence be taken modulo r, c be the carry value which is either 0 or 1. The state transition is performed as follows:

  • let Y=X
    i-s
    -X
    i-r
    -c
    ,
  • set X
    i
    to Y mod 2w
    ,
  • set c to 1, if Y<0, to 0 otherwise.

The following typedefs define the random number engine with two commonly used parameter sets:

Type Definition
ranlux24_base(C++11) std::subtract_with_carry_engine<std::uint_fast32_t, 24, 10, 24>
ranlux48_base(C++11) std::subtract_with_carry_engine<std::uint_fast64_t, 48, 5, 12>

Template parameters

UIntType - The result type generated by the generator. The effect is undefined if this is not one of unsigned short, unsigned int, unsigned long, or unsigned long long.
w - The word size, in bits, of the state sequence, 10 < w <= std::numeric_limits<UIntType>::digits.
s - The short lag.
r - The long lag, where 0 < s < r.

Member types

Member type Definition
result_type (C++11) The integral type generated by the engine. Results are undefined if this is not an unsigned integral type.
