public sealed class RanLux : ExtendedRandom

Remarks

Use the RanLux class to represent a pseudo-_random number generator based on M. Luescher's second generation version of the RANLUX _random number generator.

The RanLux generator produces _random blocks of 24 bits. It has a period of over 10¹⁶⁶.

RanLux can be used in place of the Random class to obtain pseudo-_random numbers of a higher quality.
