Unlike a {{(random-integer)}} result negative integers are possible. {{(current-random-integer)}} <> {{(make-uniform-random-integers)}}. {{(current-random-integer)}} returns {{((integer) -> integer)}}. {{(make-uniform-random-integers)}} returns {{(() -> integer)}}. ==== make-uniform-random-reals <procedure>(make-uniform-random-reals [precision: PRECISION] [source: (SOURCE (current-random-source))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> The generator is as {{(random-source-make-reals SOURCE PRECISION)}}. {{PRECISION}} maybe {{#f}}, in which case the value is {{flonum-epsilon}}. {{SOURCE}} is a {{random-source}}. {{(current-random-real)}} = {{(make-uniform-random-reals)}}. Both return procedures of {{(() -> real)}}. === Vector Distributions The procedures named as per {{make-random-...}} return a {{procedure}} of one argument {{N}}, the length of the vector to be created. The nomenclature {{vector%}} is used to indicate a disjoint type union of {{vector, f32vector, f64vector}}. If the user is really keen to access the API for this type it is available in the, undocumented, "srfi-27-vector-support" module. ==== Usage <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 vector)) </enscript> ==== make-random-permutations ==== random-permutation! <procedure>(make-random-permutations [randoms: (RANDOMS current-random-integer)]) -> (integer -> vector)</procedure> <procedure>(random-permutation!

(From Gambit) ==== make-random-solid-sphere ==== random-solid-sphere! <procedure>(make-random-solid-sphere [mu: (MU 0)] [sigma: (SIGMA 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (integer -> vector)</procedure> <procedure>(random-solid-sphere! VECTOR% [mu: (MU 0)] [sigma: (SIGMA 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> vector%</procedure> Fills {{VECTOR%}} with inexact real random numbers the sum of whose squares are less than {{1}}. Thinking of {{VECTOR%}} as coordinates in space of dimension {{N}} = {{(vector%-length VECTOR%)}}, the coordinates are uniformly distributed within the unit n-sphere. (From Gambit) === Other Distributions Provides generators for some common distributions ranging over some subset of the inexact-reals. The domain of the generators depends, of course, on the specific distribution. All return 2 values: the generator itself and a procedure returning the argument values used to parameterize the generator. The second return value can be ignored. The identifiers matching {{*make-random-<distribution>}} are reserved. ==== Usage <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 distributions)) </enscript> All distributions are available from the omnibus module {{(srfi 27 distributions)}}, and individually as the {{(srfi 27 <distribution>)}} module. ==== make-random-normals <procedure>(make-random-normals [mu: (MU 0)] [sigma: (SIGMA 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{MU}} is {{real}}. {{SIGMA}} is {{nonzero-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 normals)) </enscript> ==== make-random-exponentials <procedure>(make-random-exponentials [mu: (MU 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{MU}} is {{real}} in [{{0}} {{1}}]. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 exponentials)) </enscript> ==== make-random-triangles <procedure>(make-random-triangles [s: (S 0)] [m: (M 1/2)] [l: (L 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{S}} is {{real}}. {{M}} is {{real}} in [{{S}} {{L}}]. {{L}} is {{real}} in ]{{S}} {{+inf.0}}[. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 triangles)) </enscript> ==== make-random-poissons <procedure>(make-random-poissons [mu: (MU 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> integer)</procedure> {{MU}} is {{nonnegative-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 poissons)) </enscript> ==== make-random-bernoullis <procedure>(make-random-bernoullis [p: (P 1/2)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> boolean)</procedure> {{P}} is {{real}} in [{{0}} {{1}}]. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 bernoullis)) </enscript> ==== make-random-binomials <procedure>(make-random-binomials [t: (T 1)] [p: (P 1/2)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> integer)</procedure> {{T}} is {{cardinal-integer}}. {{P}} is {{real}} in [{{0}} {{1}}]. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 binomials)) </enscript> ==== make-random-geometrics <procedure>(make-random-geometrics [p: (P 1/2)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))])) -> (-> integer)</procedure> {{P}} is {{real}} in [{{0}} {{1}}]. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 geometrics)) </enscript> ==== make-random-lognormals <procedure>(make-random-lognormals [mu: (MU 1)] [sigma: (SIGMA 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{MU}} is {{nonzero-real}}. {{SIGMA}} is {{nonnegative-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 lognormals)) </enscript> ==== make-random-cauchys <procedure>(make-random-cauchys [median: (MEDIAN 0)] [sigma: (SIGMA 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{MEDIAN}} is {{real}}. {{SIGMA}} is {{positive-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 cauchys)) </enscript> ==== make-random-gammas <procedure>(make-random-gammas [alpha: (ALPHA 1)] [theta: (THETA 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{ALPHA}} is {{positive-real}}. {{THETA}} is {{positive-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 gammas)) </enscript> ==== make-random-erlangs <procedure>(make-random-erlangs [alpha: (ALPHA 1)] [theta: (THETA 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{ALPHA}} is {{positive-real}}. {{THETA}} is {{positive-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 erlangs)) </enscript> ==== make-random-paretos <procedure>(make-random-paretos [alpha: (ALPHA 1)] [xmin: (XMIN 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{ALPHA}} is {{positive-real}}. {{XMIN}} is {{positive-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 paretos)) </enscript> ==== make-random-levys <procedure>(make-random-levys [gamma: (GAMMA 1)] [delta: (DELTA 0)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{GAMMA}} is {{nonnegative-real}}. {{DELTA}} is {{positive-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 levys)) </enscript> ==== make-random-weibulls <procedure>(make-random-weibulls [shape: (SHAPE 1)] [scale: (SCALE 1)] [randoms: (RANDOMS (current-random-real))]) -> (-> real)</procedure> {{SHAPE}} is {{positive-real}}. {{SCALE}} is {{positive-real}}. {{RANDOMS}} is a {{(-> real)}} <enscript language=scheme> (import (srfi 27 weibulls)) </enscript> == Examples * A procedure for creating K-vector (whatever that is) generators.

Need to provide core random integer generators which are defined over the 64-bit integer range. Currently 64-bit fixnum bounds are processed as if using a 32-bit platform. However, due to the bignum implementation, results in the 64-bit fixnum range are coerced to fixnum. * The random distribution API is poorly documented. * The implementation API is not documented. See the source distribution. * Use of an entropy-source as a random-source is impossible without the undocumented implementation API. == Requirements [[srfi-1]] [[vector-lib]] [[miscmacros]] [[check-errors]] [[timed-resource]] [[test]] == Author * [[/users/kon-lovett|Kon Lovett]] * Ported to Chicken 5 by Kon Lovett and Sergey Goldgaber == Repository This egg is hosted on the CHICKEN Subversion repository: [[https://anonymous@code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/5/srfi-27|https://anonymous@code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/5/srfi-27]] If you want to check out the source code repository of this egg and you are not familiar with Subversion, see [[/egg-svn-checkout|this page]]. == Version history ; 4.2.2 : ; 4.2.1 : ; 4.2.0 : Add {{entropy-system}} {{entropy-source}} & {{random-system}} {{random-source}}. ; 4.1.6 : Remove dependencies. ; 4.1.5 : Fix {{entropy-windows}} compilation error. ; 4.1.4 : Fix {{entropy-windows}} compilation error. ; 4.1.3 : Fix {{modulo}} of a {{flonum}} issue. ; 4.1.2 : Remove broken 32bit platform CHICKEN 4 ''optimization''. ; 4.1.1 : Update test runner. ; 4.1.0 : Remove deprecated exports.
