Park-Miller Random Number Generator
The Lehmer random number generator (named after D. H. Lehmer), sometimes also referred to as the Park–Miller random number generator (after Stephen K. Park and Keith W. Miller), is a type of linear congruential generator (LCG) that operates in multiplicative group of integers modulo n. The general formula is : X_ = a \cdot X_k \bmod m, where the modulus ''m'' is a prime number or a power of a prime number, the multiplier ''a'' is an element of high multiplicative order modulo ''m'' (e.g., a primitive root modulo ''n''), and the seed ''X'' is coprime to ''m''. Other names are multiplicative linear congruential generator (MLCG) and multiplicative congruential generator (MCG). Parameters in common use In 1988, Park and Miller suggested a Lehmer RNG with particular parameters ''m'' = 2 − 1 = 2,147,483,647 (a Mersenne prime ''M'') and ''a'' = 7 = 16,807 (a primitive root modulo ''M''), now known as MINSTD. Although MINSTD was later criticized by Marsaglia and Sullivan ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
