http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5441 Joseph Rushton Wakeling changed: What|Removed |Added CC||joseph.wakel...@webdrake.ne ||t --- Comment #3 from Joseph Rushton Wakeling 2013-05-03 07:38:00 PDT --- rndGen _should_ always return Random, because rndGen is intended to provide a thread-safe instance of the default RNG type (which _is_ Random). The problems identified here aren't with rndGen but with code that does not take into account RNG instances other than rndGen. So, I suggest this bug be marked as invalid. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---

This is often useful, but > randomShuffle cant't take other random generators. It can, as of DMD 2.058 at least. Its signature is void randomShuffle(Range, RandomGen = Random)(Range r, ref RandomGen gen = rndGen) The two parameters are the range to shuffle and the RNG to use to perform the shuffle. > I think following signature is better. > > ref RandomGen rndGen(RandomGen = Random)() What, exactly, would your rndGen function _do_ to the RandomGen object you pass into it??? -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---
