Function Documentation

◆ randU01()

double LatticeTester::Random::randU01 ( )

Returns a random number in \([0, 1)\).

The number has 53 random bits of resolution on 64-bits machines, and 32 random bits on 32-bits machines.

◆ randInt() [1/2]

std::int64_t LatticeTester::Random::randInt	(	std::int64_t	i,
		std::int64_t	j )

Return a random integer in \([i, j]\).

The numbers \(i\) and \(j\) can occur. Restriction: \(i < j\). The generated number is limited to 62 bits.

◆ randInt() [2/2]

NTL::ZZ LatticeTester::Random::randInt	(	NTL::ZZ	i,
		NTL::ZZ	j )

This is an overload of the previous method to create an NTL::ZZ integer in the range \([i,j]\).

NTL has a method to generate pseudo random numbers in a given range, but it is not deterministic. This method concatenates random bits until it has a big enough number and tries to assign the correct integer to it.

◆ randBits()

std::uint64_t LatticeTester::Random::randBits ( int64_t s )

Returns random blocks of \(s\) bits ( \(s\)-bit integers).

◆ setSeed()

void LatticeTester::Random::setSeed ( std::uint64_t seed = GERME )

Sets the seed of the generator.
