Class TruncatedRandomStream

java.lang.Object

umontreal.iro.lecuyer.rng.TruncatedRandomStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

RandomStream

public class TruncatedRandomStream
extends java.lang.Object
implements RandomStream

Represents a container random stream generating numbers in an interval (a, b) instead of in (0, 1), where 0 <= a < b <= 1, by using the contained stream. If nextDouble returns u for the contained stream, it will return v = a + (b - a)u, which is uniform over (a, b), for the truncated stream. The method nextInt returns the integer that corresponds to v (by inversion); this integer is no longer uniformly distributed in general.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	nextArrayOfDouble(double[] u, int start, int n) Generates n (pseudo)random numbers from the uniform distribution and stores them into the array u starting at index start.
void	nextArrayOfInt(int i, int j, int[] u, int start, int n) Generates n (pseudo)random numbers from the discrete uniform distribution over the integers {i, i + 1,..., j}, using this stream and stores the result in the array u starting at index start.
double	nextDouble() Returns a (pseudo)random number from the uniform distribution over the interval (0, 1), using this stream, after advancing its state by one step.
int	nextInt(int i, int j) Returns a (pseudo)random number from the discrete uniform distribution over the integers {i, i + 1,..., j}, using this stream.
void	resetNextSubstream() Reinitializes the stream to the beginning of its next substream: Ng is computed, and Cg and Bg are set to Ng.
void	resetStartStream() Reinitializes the stream to its initial state Ig: Cg and Bg are set to Ig.
void	resetStartSubstream() Reinitializes the stream to the beginning of its current substream: Cg is set to Bg.

TruncatedRandomStream

public TruncatedRandomStream(RandomStream stream,
                             double a,
                             double b)

Method Detail

resetStartStream

public void resetStartStream()

Description copied from interface: RandomStream

Reinitializes the stream to its initial state I_g: C_g and B_g are set to I_g.

Specified by:

resetStartStream in interface RandomStream

resetStartSubstream

public void resetStartSubstream()

Description copied from interface: RandomStream

Reinitializes the stream to the beginning of its current substream: C_g is set to B_g.

Specified by:

resetStartSubstream in interface RandomStream

resetNextSubstream

public void resetNextSubstream()

Description copied from interface: RandomStream

Reinitializes the stream to the beginning of its next substream: N_g is computed, and C_g and B_g are set to N_g.

Specified by:

resetNextSubstream in interface RandomStream

nextDouble

public double nextDouble()

Description copied from interface: RandomStream

Returns a (pseudo)random number from the uniform distribution over the interval (0, 1), using this stream, after advancing its state by one step. The generators programmed in SSJ never return the values 0 or 1.

Specified by:

nextDouble in interface RandomStream

Returns:

the next generated uniform

nextArrayOfDouble

public void nextArrayOfDouble(double[] u,
                              int start,
                              int n)

Description copied from interface: RandomStream

Generates n (pseudo)random numbers from the uniform distribution and stores them into the array u starting at index start.

Specified by:

nextArrayOfDouble in interface RandomStream

Parameters:

u - array that will contain the generated uniforms

start - starting index, in the array u, to write uniforms from

n - number of uniforms to generate

nextInt

public int nextInt(int i,
                   int j)

Description copied from interface: RandomStream

Returns a (pseudo)random number from the discrete uniform distribution over the integers {i, i + 1,..., j}, using this stream. (Calls nextDouble once.)

Specified by:

nextInt in interface RandomStream

Parameters:

i - smallest integer that can be generated

j - greatest integer that can be generated

Returns:

the generated integer

nextArrayOfInt

public void nextArrayOfInt(int i,
                           int j,
                           int[] u,
                           int start,
                           int n)

Description copied from interface: RandomStream

Generates n (pseudo)random numbers from the discrete uniform distribution over the integers {i, i + 1,..., j}, using this stream and stores the result in the array u starting at index start. (Calls nextInt n times.)

Specified by:

nextArrayOfInt in interface RandomStream

Parameters:

i - smallest integer that can be generated

j - greatest integer that can be generated

u - array that will contain the generated values

start - starting index, in the array u, to write integers from

n - number of values being generated
