rand.rs

1//! Random floating-point number generation with the `rand` crate.
2//!
3//! There are two distributions for generating random floats. [Uniform01] generates floats
4//! between 0 and 1 (it also backs rand's `Standard` / `Open01` / `OpenClosed01`). [UniformFBig]
5//! generates floats in a given range and is the backend for rand's `SampleUniform` trait.
6//!
7//! The distributions and their sampling algorithms are defined here once, generic over the
8//! [`BitRng`](dashu_int::rand::BitRng) trait. Each rand version's `Distribution` /
9//! `UniformSampler` / `SampleUniform` impls live in the `rand_v08` / `rand_v09` / `rand_v010`
10//! modules (enable the matching feature); adapt that version's RNG with
11//! `dashu_int::rand::bridge_v08` / `bridge_v09` / `bridge_v010`. See those modules for usage
12//! examples.
13//!
14//! # Precision and rounding
15//!
16//! The precision of a float generated by different distributions is explained below:
17//! * [Uniform01] generates floats with the precision decided by the constructor.
18//! * The builtin rand distributions (`Standard` / `StandardUniform`, `Open01`, `OpenClosed01`)
19//!   generate floats with the max precision such that the significand fits in a [DoubleWord].
20//! * [UniformFBig] (and therefore rand's `Uniform`) generates floats with the precision being the
21//!   maximum between the interval boundaries.
22//!
23//! The rounding of the [FBig] type doesn't affect the number generation process.
