Struct rand_distr::uniform::UniformInt

pub struct UniformInt<X> { /* fields omitted */ }

The back-end implementing [UniformSampler] for integer types.

Unless you are implementing [UniformSampler] for your own type, this type should not be used directly, use Uniform instead.

Implementation notes

For simplicity, we use the same generic struct UniformInt<X> for all integer types X. This gives us only one field type, X; to store unsigned values of this size, we take use the fact that these conversions are no-ops.

For a closed range, the number of possible numbers we should generate is range = (high - low + 1). To avoid bias, we must ensure that the size of our sample space, zone, is a multiple of range; other values must be rejected (by replacing with a new random sample).

As a special case, we use range = 0 to represent the full range of the result type (i.e. for new_inclusive($ty::MIN, $ty::MAX)).

The optimum zone is the largest product of range which fits in our (unsigned) target type. We calculate this by calculating how many numbers we must reject: reject = (MAX + 1) % range = (MAX - range + 1) % range. Any (large) product of range will suffice, thus in sample_single we multiply by a power of 2 via bit-shifting (faster but may cause more rejections).

The smallest integer PRNGs generate is u32. For 8- and 16-bit outputs we use u32 for our zone and samples (because it's not slower and because it reduces the chance of having to reject a sample). In this case we cannot store zone in the target type since it is too large, however we know ints_to_reject < range <= $unsigned::MAX.

An alternative to using a modulus is widening multiply: After a widening multiply by range, the result is in the high word. Then comparing the low word against zone makes sure our distribution is uniform.
