(since C++11) |
std::seed_seq
consumes a sequence of integer-valued data and produces a requested number of unsigned integer values i
, 0 ≤ i < 232, based on the consumed data. The produced values are distributed over the entire 32-bit range even if the consumed values are close.
It provides a way to seed a large number of random number engines or to seed a generator that requires a lot of entropy, given a small seed or a poorly distributed initial seed sequence.
std::seed_seq
meets the requirements of SeedSequence.

Member functions
(C++11)
|
constructs and seeds the std::seed_seq object (public member function) |
operator=
[deleted] (C++11)
|
seed_seq is not assignable (public member function) |
(C++11)
|
calculates the bias-eliminated, evenly distributed 32-bit values (public member function) |
(C++11)
|
obtains the number of 32-bit values stored in std::seed_seq (public member function) |
(C++11)

obtains the 32-bit values stored in std::seed_seq (public member function) |
Example
#include <cstdint>
#include <iostream>
#include <random>
int main()
{
std::seed_seq seq{1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
std::vector<std::uint32_t> seeds(10);
seq.generate(seeds.begin(), seeds.end());
for (std::uint32_t n : seeds)
std::cout << n << '\n';
}
