Member Function Documentation

const long IRndmGen::ID ( ) const [pure virtual]

Random generator ID.

StatusCode IRndmGen::finalize ( ) [pure virtual]

Initialize the generator.

StatusCode IRndmGen::initialize ( const IRndmGen::Param & par ) [pure virtual]

Initialize the generator.

const InterfaceID & IRndmGen::interfaceID ( ) [inline, static]

Retrieve interface ID. Reimplemented from IInterface. Definition at line 59 of file IRndmGen.h.

const IRndmGen::Param * IRndmGen::parameters ( ) const [pure virtual]

Access to random number generator parameters.

double IRndmGen::shoot ( ) const [pure virtual]

Single shot returning single random number according to specified distribution. Referenced by Rndm::Numbers::operator()(), Rndm::Numbers::pop(), and Rndm::Numbers::shoot().

StatusCode IRndmGen::shootArray ( std::vector< double >& array, long howmany, long start = 0 ) const [pure virtual]

Multiple shots returning vector with random number according to specified distribution. Parameters: array   Array containing random numbers howmany   fill 'howmany' random numbers into array start   ... starting at position start Statuscode   indicating success or failure Referenced by Rndm::Numbers::shootArray().

const IID & IRndmGen::type ( ) const [pure virtual]

Random number generator type.
