====== random ====== A pure clojure random library. ----------- description ----------- This project is a pure clojure random number library that has goals. #. Written in pure clojure #. Functional; a seed should be the input of every functions #. Use a very good pseudo random number generator algorithm #. Thread Safe --------- Algorithm --------- The algorithms are translation of Go's "`math/rand`_" package. It totally makes sense to use Go's random number generator has it has been implemented by `Ken Thompson`_ and has been used and verified by many talented programmers. Hence, we can be sure the algorithm is not totally wrong and has a decent speed. .. _math/rand: https://golang.org/pkg/math/rand/ .. _Ken Thompson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Thompson ------------ performances ------------ The performance sucks! The java random number generator is many time faster. But, if the bottle of your application is the random number generator... bravo! That has never happend to me. ----- Usage ----- The usage idea is to generate a *state* from a seed. The seed is an integer and the state an atom.
