PCG64

PCG64

Closed this issue 10 years ago · 2 comments

Here is my promised C implementation of PCG64 that incorporates the necessary emulation of uint128_t arithmetic when not supported by the C compiler. Not entirely sure how useful this will be for you, but I think it's my preferred candidate for best all-rounder default PRNG.

It "only" supports the settable-sequence variant, but I think that's the one we're actually interested in and dropping the others eliminates a lot of cruft.

Thanks. Looks reasonable - I think that is the only part of pcg64 that is needed.

Thanks - incorporated without any issues. Still need to check on a 32 bit VM, but worked as a drop-in replacement for the stock PCG-64
