random number generators

Writing custom Random Number Generators and performance Comparisions

For some reason, I became concerned about the amount of time being spent by random number generators, so I took a look into them. I wrote a program which compares the speed of std::mt19937 ( mersenne twister ), a custom “twister loop”, a custom “pcg”, and custom “xorshift” generators. The standard twister was the slowest,Continue reading “Writing custom Random Number Generators and performance Comparisions”
