Why did you need to write an implementation of Mersenne Twister?
- bpicolo 11y ago"No open source code."
- Kluny 11y agoYeah, we got that. But why did you need a Mersenne Twister?
- tbabb 11y agoMy understanding is that Mersenne Twister is kind of a gold standard for non-cryptographic PRNGs. Linear congruential generators are known to be rather poor, and only ideal where speed is critical and the quality doesn't matter.
