This package provides basic pseudo-random number generation, including the
ability to split random number generators.
In pure code, use System.Random.uniform and System.Random.uniformR from
System.Random to generate pseudo-random numbers with a pure pseudo-random
number generator like System.Random.StdGen.
As an example, here is how you can simulate rolls of a six-sided die using
System.Random.uniformR:
See System.Random for more details.
In monadic code, use System.Random.Stateful.uniformM and
System.Random.Stateful.uniformRM from System.Random.Stateful to generate
pseudo-random numbers with a monadic pseudo-random number generator, or
using a monadic adapter.
As an example, here is how you can simulate rolls of a six-sided die using
System.Random.Stateful.uniformRM:
The monadic adapter System.Random.Stateful.runGenState_ is used here to lift
the pure pseudo-random number generator pureGen into the
System.Random.Stateful.StatefulGen context.
The monadic interface can also be used with existing monadic pseudo-random
number generators. In this example, we use the one provided in the
mwc-random package:
See System.Random.Stateful for more details.
