av_lfg_init_from_data()

int av_lfg_init_from_data	(	AVLFG *	c,
		const uint8_t *	data,
		unsigned int	length
	)

Seed the state of the ALFG using binary data.

Return value: 0 on success, negative value (AVERROR) on failure.

av_lfg_get()

static unsigned int av_lfg_get ( AVLFG *  c )

inlinestatic

Get the next random unsigned 32-bit number using an ALFG.

Please also consider a simple LCG like state= state*1664525+1013904223, it may be good enough and faster for your specific use case.

av_mlfg_get()

static unsigned int av_mlfg_get ( AVLFG *  c )

inlinestatic

Get the next random unsigned 32-bit number using a MLFG.

Please also consider av_lfg_get() above, it is faster.

Definition at line 57 of file lfg.h.

av_bmg_get()

void av_bmg_get	(	AVLFG *	lfg,
		double	out[2]
	)

Get the next two numbers generated by a Box-Muller Gaussian generator using the random numbers issued by lfg.

Parameters

out	array where the two generated numbers are placed
