Detailed Description

template<class RNG>
class QuantLib::RandomSequenceGenerator< RNG >

Random sequence generator based on a pseudo-random number generator.

Random sequence generator based on a pseudo-random number generator RNG.

Class RNG must implement the following interface:

RNG::sample_type RNG::next() const;

If a client of this class wants to use the nextInt32Sequence method, class RNG must also implement

unsigned long RNG::nextInt32() const;
Warning:
do not use with low-discrepancy sequence generator.
Examples
