mcg59

The engine is based on the 59-bit multiplicative congruential generator.

Subsequence selection methods support

skipAhead (nskip)

Supported

leapfrog (threadIdx, nThreads)

Supported

Batch Processing

MCG59 engine needs the initial condition (seed) for state initialization. The seed can be either an integer scalar or a vector of \(p\) integer elements, the inputs to the respective engine constructors.

Algorithm Parameters

MCG59 engine has the following parameters:

Algorithm Parameters for mcg58 engine (Batch Processing)

Parameter

Default Value

Description

algorithmFPType

float

The floating-point type that the algorithm uses for intermediate computations. Can be float or double.

method

defaultDense

Performance-oriented computation method; the only method supported by the algorithm.

seed

  • \(777\) for a scalar seed

  • NA for a vector seed

Initial condition for state initialization, scalar or vector:

  • Scalar, value of size_t type

  • Vector, pointer to HomogenNumericTable of size \(1 \times p\)
