Constructor Detail

RandomAdaptor

public RandomAdaptor(RandomGenerator randomGenerator)

Construct a RandomAdaptor wrapping the supplied RandomGenerator.

Parameters:

randomGenerator - the wrapped generator

Method Detail

createAdaptor

public static java.util.Random createAdaptor(RandomGenerator randomGenerator)

Factory method to create a Random using the supplied RandomGenerator.

Parameters:

randomGenerator - wrapped RandomGenerator instance

Returns:

a Random instance wrapping the RandomGenerator

nextBoolean

public boolean nextBoolean()

Returns the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed boolean value from this random number generator's sequence.

Specified by:

nextBoolean in interface RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextBoolean in class java.util.Random

Returns:

the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed boolean value from this random number generator's sequence

nextBytes

public void nextBytes(byte[] bytes)

Generates random bytes and places them into a user-supplied byte array. The number of random bytes produced is equal to the length of the byte array.

Specified by:

nextBytes in interface RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextBytes in class java.util.Random

Parameters:

bytes - the non-null byte array in which to put the random bytes

nextDouble

public double nextDouble()

Returns the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed double value between 0.0 and 1.0 from this random number generator's sequence.

Specified by:

nextDouble in interface RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextDouble in class java.util.Random

Returns:

the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed double value between 0.0 and 1.0 from this random number generator's sequence

nextFloat

public float nextFloat()

Returns the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed float value between 0.0 and 1.0 from this random number generator's sequence.

Specified by:

nextFloat in interface RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextFloat in class java.util.Random

Returns:

the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed float value between 0.0 and 1.0 from this random number generator's sequence

nextGaussian

public double nextGaussian()

Returns the next pseudorandom, Gaussian ("normally") distributed double value with mean 0.0 and standard deviation 1.0 from this random number generator's sequence.

Specified by:

nextGaussian in interface RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextGaussian in class java.util.Random

Returns:

the next pseudorandom, Gaussian ("normally") distributed double value with mean 0.0 and standard deviation 1.0 from this random number generator's sequence

nextInt

public int nextInt()

Returns the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed int value from this random number generator's sequence. All 2³² possible int values should be produced with (approximately) equal probability.

Specified by:

nextInt in interface RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextInt in class java.util.Random

Returns:

the next pseudorandom, uniformly distributed int value from this random number generator's sequence

nextInt

public int nextInt(int n)

Returns a pseudorandom, uniformly distributed int value between 0 (inclusive) and the specified value (exclusive), drawn from this random number generator's sequence.

Specified by:

nextInt in interface RandomGenerator

Overrides:

nextInt in class java.util.Random

Parameters:

n - the bound on the random number to be returned. Must be positive.

Returns:

a pseudorandom, uniformly distributed int value between 0 (inclusive) and n (exclusive).

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if n is not positive.
