public static member function
<random>
static constexpr result_type max();
Maximum value
Returns the maximum value potentially returned by member operator(), which for independent_bits_engine is 2w-1, where w is the second class template parameter (the number of significant bits per generated number).
Return value
2w-1
result_type is a member type, defined as an alias of the type of the numbers generated by the base engine.
Example
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
| // independent_bits_engine::min and max #include <iostream> #include <chrono> #include <cstdint> #include <random> int main () { unsigned seed = std::chrono::system_clock::now().time_since_epoch().count(); std::independent_bits_engine<std::mt19937,64,std::uint_fast64_t> generator (seed); std::cout << generator() << " is a random number between "; std::cout << generator.min() << " and " << generator.max(); return 0; }
|
Possible output:
4629903696969630447 is a random number between 0 and 18446744073709551615 |
Complexity
None (compile-time constant).
