Hi Brian,
Brian Gough a écrit :
I would like to know if GSL developers would be interested by this library. I
see that GSL RNG are not seeded. Is it a choice? Hasard always initialize a
RNG using a random seed.
Thanks for your email, I have taken a look at the library--it is
nicely done. Regarding seeding in GSL, each generator is always
initialised with the same default seed for reproducibility.
Hasard can be used to generate a random seed, but it looks like you
don't need that for GSL. Reseed an engine (set a new random seed) can be
added as a new function, so the API is not changed.
Another idea would be to use Hasard as a GSL engine. So you can use
Hasard engines in GSL: Mersenne Twister, ISAAC, Arcfour, glib, openssl,
gcrypt, GMP, KISS, /dev/urandom, etc.
