Detailed Description

Class for generating random number with normal probability density.

The algorithms and notations used are described in "Random Number Generation and Monte Carlo Methods", James E. Gentle, Springer 1998

The code below shows how to use the random generator.

#include <iostream>

#include <visp/vpNoise.h>

int main()
{
  vpGaussRand noise(0.5, 0);
  for(int i=0; i< 10; i++) {
    std::cout << "noise " << i << ": " << noise() << std::endl;
  }
  return 0;
}

Bays-Durham Shuffling of Park-Miller generator.

Minimal random number generator of Park and Miller with Bays-Durham shuffle. Returns a uniform random deviate between 0.0 and 1.0 (exclusive of the endpoint values).
