Class RandomXS128

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable

    public class RandomXS128
    extends java.util.Random
    This class implements the xorshift128+ algorithm that is a very fast, top-quality 64-bit pseudo-random number generator. The quality of this PRNG is much higher than Random's, and its cycle length is 2128 − 1, which is more than enough for any single-thread application. More details and algorithms can be found here.

    Instances of RandomXS128 are not thread-safe.

      • RandomXS128

        public RandomXS128()
        Creates a new random number generator. This constructor sets the seed of the random number generator to a value very likely to be distinct from any other invocation of this constructor.

        This implementation creates a Random instance to generate the initial seed.

      • RandomXS128

        public RandomXS128​(long seed)
        Creates a new random number generator using a single long seed.
        Parameters:
        seed - the initial seed
      • RandomXS128

        public RandomXS128​(long seed0,
                           long seed1)
        Creates a new random number generator using two long seeds.
        Parameters:
        seed0 - the first part of the initial seed
        seed1 - the second part of the initial seed

      • nextLong

        public long nextLong()
        Returns the next pseudo-random, uniformly distributed long value from this random number generator's sequence.

        Subclasses should override this, as this is used by all other methods.

        Overrides:
        nextLong in class java.util.Random
      • next

        protected final int next​(int bits)
        This protected method is final because, contrary to the superclass, it's not used anymore by the other methods.
        Overrides:
        next in class java.util.Random
      • nextInt

        public int nextInt()
        Returns the next pseudo-random, uniformly distributed int value from this random number generator's sequence.

        This implementation uses nextLong() internally.

        Overrides:
        nextInt in class java.util.Random
      • nextInt

        public int nextInt​(int n)
        Returns a pseudo-random, uniformly distributed int value between 0 (inclusive) and the specified value (exclusive), drawn from this random number generator's sequence.

        This implementation uses nextLong() internally.

        Overrides:
        nextInt in class java.util.Random
        Parameters:
        n - the positive bound on the random number to be returned.
        Returns:
        the next pseudo-random int value between 0 (inclusive) and n (exclusive).
      • nextLong

        public long nextLong​(long n)
        Returns a pseudo-random, uniformly distributed long value between 0 (inclusive) and the specified value (exclusive), drawn from this random number generator's sequence. The algorithm used to generate the value guarantees that the result is uniform, provided that the sequence of 64-bit values produced by this generator is.

        This implementation uses nextLong() internally.

        Parameters:
        n - the positive bound on the random number to be returned.
        Returns:
        the next pseudo-random long value between 0 (inclusive) and n (exclusive).
      • nextDouble

        public double nextDouble()
        Returns a pseudo-random, uniformly distributed double value between 0.0 and 1.0 from this random number generator's sequence.

      • setSeed

        public void setSeed​(long seed)
        Sets the internal seed of this generator based on the given long value.

        The given seed is passed twice through a hash function. This way, if the user passes a small value we avoid the short irregular transient associated with states having a very small number of bits set.

        Overrides:
        setSeed in class java.util.Random
        Parameters:
        seed - a nonzero seed for this generator (if zero, the generator will be seeded with Long.MIN_VALUE).

      • getState

        public long getState​(int seed)
        Returns the internal seeds to allow state saving.
        Parameters:
        seed - must be 0 or 1, designating which of the 2 long seeds to return
        Returns:
        the internal seed that can be used in setState
