TRandom2 Class Reference

Random number generator class based on the maximally quidistributed combined Tausworthe generator by L'Ecuyer.

The period of the generator is 2**88 (about 10**26) and it uses only 3 words for the state.

For more information see: P. L'Ecuyer, Mathematics of Computation, 65, 213 (1996) P. L'Ecuyer, Mathematics of Computation, 68, 225 (1999)

void TRandom2::SetSeed ( ULong_t  seed = 0)
