* Package name : libmath-random-mt-auto-perl Version : 6.23 Upstream Author : Jerry D. Hedden <jdhed...@cpan.org> * URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Math-Random-MT-Auto * License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: Perl Description : Auto-seeded Mersenne Twister PRNGs The Mersenne Twister is a fast pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) that is capable of providing large volumes (> 10^6004) of "high quality" pseudorandom data to applications that may exhaust available "truly" random data sources or system-provided PRNGs such as rand|perlfunc/"rand". Math::Random::MT::Auto provides PRNGs that are based on the Mersenne Twister. There is a functional interface to a single, standalone PRNG, and an OO interface (based on the inside-out object model as implemented by the Object::InsideOut module) for generating multiple PRNG objects. The PRNGs are normally self-seeding, automatically acquiring a (19968-bit) random seed from user-selectable sources. (Manual seeding is optionally available.) The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group. -- Generated with the help of dpt-gen-itp(1) from pkg-perl-tools.
