#63039 - RE: how to generate random number? Responding to: ???'s previous message |
For anybody interested, here's an update from today's comp.lang.c traffic commenting on the testing performed against Ben Pfaff's PRNG implementation...
---------------------------------------------------------------- It seems to me that Ben has done a nice job here. His PRNG passes George Marsaglia's "diehard" test with flying colors. http://stat.fsu.edu/pub/diehard/ (Last time I checked, my local standard rand() did _not_ pass; the Mersenne Twister does fine). In case you're interested, Ben, I've put a little archive of the diehard test suite as it applies to your code at http://www.ecn.wfu.edu/~cottrell/pfaff_prng.tgz (60Kb) -- Allin Cottrell Department of Economics Wake Forest University, NC |
