Std.Random.next

1 declaration

fn

next: &Std.Random.Generator -> (Std.Random.Generator, UInt64)

This is a callable function.

What it does

The next state and the number it produced.

Xorshift with a multiplying finish: three shifts scramble the state and the

multiply spreads the low bits, which the shifts alone leave weak.
