ROOT::Math::MersenneTwisterEngine Class Reference

Random number generator class based on M.

Matsumoto and T. Nishimura, Mersenne Twister: A 623-diminsionally equidistributed uniform pseudorandom number generator ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation, Vol. 8, No. 1, January 1998, pp 3–30.

For more information see the Mersenne Twister homepage [http://www.math.keio.ac.jp/~matumoto/emt.html]

Advantage:

• large period 2**19937 -1
• relativly fast (slightly slower than TRandom1 and TRandom2 but much faster than TRandom1)

Drawback: a relative large internal state of 624 integers
