It contains a *64-bit PRNG*, and can generate +bounded uniform and normal distributed random numbers. **crand** is an extremely fast PRNG by Tyge Løvset, suited for parallel usage. It features a Weyl-sequence as part of the state. It is faster than *sfc64*, *wyhash64*, *pcg64*, and almost -50% faster than *xoshiro256\*\** compiled with GCC. It does not require fast multiplication or +50% faster than *xoshiro256\*\** on common platforms. It does not require fast multiplication or 128-bit integer operations. It has a 256 bit state, but updates only 192 bit per generated number. |
