Detailed Description

The Mersenne Twister random number generator.

This class defines a random number generator, using the Mersenne Twister algorithm developed and implemented by Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura (1997, 2002). The period of this random number generator is .

The mersenne class extends Scythe's basic random number generating class, scythe::rng, implementing the interface that it defines.
