Random numbers are generated in conjunction with Boost.Random. However, since
|
|
Boost.Random is unaware of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrary-precision_arithmetic" target="_top">arbitrary
|
|
precision</a> numbers, it's necessary to include the header:

Alternatively we can generate integers in a given range using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">uniform_int_distribution</span></code>, this will invoke
|
|
the underlying engine multiple times to build up the required number of bits

Floating point values in [0,1) are generated using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">uniform_01</span></code>,
|
|
the trick here is to ensure that the underlying generator produces as many
|
|
random bits as there are digits in the floating point type. As above <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">independent_bits_engine</span></code> can be used for
|
|
this purpose, note that we also have to convert decimal digits (in the floating
|
|
point type) to bits (in the random number generator):
