Math::Random Description

Random Number Generators Math::Random is a Perl port of the C version of randlib, which is a suite of routines for generating random deviates. See "RANDLIB" for more information.Math::Random supports all of the distributions from which the Fortran and C versions generate deviates. The major functionalities that are excluded are the multiple generators/splitting facility and antithetic random number generation. These facilities, along with some of the distributions which are included, are probably not of interest except to the very sophisticated user. If there is sufficient interest, the excluded facilities will be included in a future release. The code to perform the excluded facilities is available as randlib in Fortran and C source.SYNOPSIS * use Math::Random; Exports the following routines by default (see "Default Routines"): random_set_seed_from_phrase random_get_seed random_seed_from_phrase random_set_seed random_uniform random_uniform_integer random_permutation random_permuted_index random_normal In this case the extended routines (see "Extended Routines") can be used by qualifying them explicitly with Math::Random::, for example: $stdexp = Math::Random::random_exponential(); * use Math::Random qw(random_beta random_chi_square random_exponential random_f random_gamma random_multivariate_normal random_multinomial random_noncentral_chi_square random_noncentral_f random_normal random_permutation random_permuted_index random_uniform random_poisson random_uniform_integer random_negative_binomial random_binomial random_seed_from_phrase random_get_seed random_set_seed_from_phrase random_set_seed ); Exports all the routines explicitly. Use a subset of the list for the routines you want. * use Math::Random qw(:all); Exports all the routines, as well. Requirements: · Perl
