class (KnownNat (SeedSize g), 1 <= SeedSize g, Typeable g) => SeedGen g where #
Interface for converting a pure pseudo-random number generator to and from non-empty sequence of bytes. Seeds are stored in Little-Endian order regardless of the platform it is being used on, which provides cross-platform compatibility, while providing optimal performance for the most common platform type.
Conversion to and from a Seed
serves as a building block for implementing
serialization for any pure or frozen pseudo-random number generator.
It is not trivial to implement platform independence. For this reason this type class
has two alternative ways of creating an instance for this class. The easiest way for
constructing a platform indepent seed is by converting the inner state of a generator
to and from a list of 64 bit words using toSeed64
and fromSeed64
respectively. In
that case cross-platform support will be handled automaticaly.

However, when performance is of utmost importance or default handling of cross platform
independence is not sufficient, then an adventurous developer can try implementing
conversion into bytes directly with toSeed
and fromSeed
.
Properties that must hold:
> fromSeed (toSeed gen) == gen
> fromSeed64 (toSeed64 gen) == gen
Note, that there is no requirement for every Seed
to roundtrip, eg. this proprty does
not even hold for StdGen
:
>>>
let seed = nonEmptyToSeed (0xab :| [0xff00]) :: Seed StdGen
>>>
seed == toSeed (fromSeed seed)
False

Construct pseudo-random number generator from a list of words. Whenever list does
not have enough bytes to satisfy the SeedSize
requirement, it will be padded with
zeros. On the other hand when it has more than necessary, extra bytes will be dropped.

class RandomGen g => SplitGen g where #
Pseudo-random generators that can be split into two separate and independent psuedo-random generators should provide an instance for this type class.
Historically this functionality was included in the RandomGen
type class in the
split
function, however, few pseudo-random generators possess this property of
splittability. This lead the old split
function being usually implemented in terms of
error
.
Since: random-1.3.0
Methods
Returns two distinct pseudo-random number generators.
Implementations should take care to ensure that the resulting generators are not correlated.
Since: random-1.3.0
RandomGen
is an interface to pure pseudo-random number generators.
StdGen
is the standard RandomGen
instance provided by this library.
Since: random-1.0.0
Methods
Returns an Int
that is uniformly distributed over the range returned by
genRange
(including both end points), and a new generator. Using next
is inefficient as all operations go via Integer
. See
here for
more details. It is thus deprecated.

genWord64 :: g -> (Word64, g) #
genWord32R :: Word32 -> g -> (Word32, g) #
genWord32R upperBound g
returns a Word32
that is uniformly
distributed over the range [0, upperBound]
.
Since: random-1.2.0
genWord64R :: Word64 -> g -> (Word64, g) #
genWord64R upperBound g
returns a Word64
that is uniformly
distributed over the range [0, upperBound]
.
Since: random-1.2.0
genShortByteString :: Int -> g -> (ShortByteString, g) #
Same as
, but for uniformByteArray
False
ShortByteString
.
genShortByteString n g
returns a ShortByteString
of length n
filled with
pseudo-random bytes.
Note - This function will be removed from the type class in the next major release as
it is no longer needed because of unsafeUniformFillMutableByteArray
.
Since: random-1.2.0
unsafeUniformFillMutableByteArray #
Arguments
:: MutableByteArray s | Mutable array to fill with random bytes |
-> Int | Offset into a mutable array from the beginning in number of bytes. Offset must be non-negative, but this will not be checked |
-> Int | Number of randomly generated bytes to write into the array. Number of bytes must be non-negative and less then the total size of the array, minus the offset. This also will be checked. |
-> g | |
-> ST s g |
Fill in the supplied MutableByteArray
with uniformly generated random bytes. This function
is unsafe because it is not required to do any bounds checking. For a safe variant use
uniformFillMutableByteArrayM
instead.
Default type class implementation uses defaultUnsafeUniformFillMutableByteArray
.
Since: random-1.3.0
Yields the range of values returned by next
.
It is required that:
- If
(a, b) =
, thengenRange
ga < b
. genRange
must not examine its argument so the value it returns is determined only by the instance ofRandomGen
.
The default definition spans the full range of Int
.
Since: random-1.0.0
Returns two distinct pseudo-random number generators.
Implementations should take care to ensure that the resulting generators
are not correlated. Some pseudo-random number generators are not
splittable. In that case, the split
implementation should fail with a
descriptive error
message.
Since: random-1.0.0
Instances
This is a binary form of pseudo-random number generator's state. It is designed to be safe and easy to use for input/output operations like restoring from file, transmitting over the network, etc.
Constructor is not exported, becasue it is important for implementation to enforce the
invariant of the underlying byte array being of the exact same length as the generator has
specified in SeedSize
. Use mkSize
and
unSize
to get access to the raw bytes in a safe manner.
Since: random-1.3.0
The class of types for which random values can be generated. Most
instances of Random
will produce values that are uniformly distributed on the full
range, but for those types without a well-defined "full range" some sensible default
subrange will be selected.
Random
exists primarily for backwards compatibility with version 1.1 of
this library. In new code, use the better specified Uniform
and
UniformRange
instead.
Since: random-1.0.0
Minimal complete definition
Nothing
Methods
randomR :: RandomGen g => (a, a) -> g -> (a, g) #
Takes a range (lo,hi) and a pseudo-random number generator g, and returns a pseudo-random value uniformly distributed over the closed interval [lo,hi], together with a new generator. It is unspecified what happens if lo>hi, but usually the values will simply get swapped.
>>>
let gen = mkStdGen 26
>>>
fst $ randomR ('a', 'z') gen
'z'>>>
fst $ randomR ('a', 'z') gen
'z'
For continuous types there is no requirement that the values lo and hi are ever produced, but they may be, depending on the implementation and the interval.
There is no requirement to follow the Ord
instance and the concept of range can be
defined on per type basis. For example product types will treat their values
independently:
>>>
fst $ randomR (('a', 5.0), ('z', 10.0)) $ mkStdGen 26
('z',5.22694980853051)
In case when a lawful range is desired uniformR
should be used
instead.
Since: random-1.0.0
random :: RandomGen g => g -> (a, g) #
The same as randomR
, but using a default range determined by the type:
- For bounded types (instances of
Bounded
, such asChar
), the range is normally the whole type. - For floating point types, the range is normally the closed interval
[0,1]
. - For
Integer
, the range is (arbitrarily) the range ofInt
.
Since: random-1.0.0
randomRs :: RandomGen g => (a, a) -> g -> [a] #
Plural variant of randomR
, producing an infinite list of
pseudo-random values instead of returning a new generator.
Since: random-1.0.0
randoms :: RandomGen g => g -> [a] #
Plural variant of random
, producing an infinite list of
pseudo-random values instead of returning a new generator.

Arguments
:: RandomGen g | |
=> MutableByteArray s | Mutable array to fill with random bytes |
-> Int | Offset into a mutable array from the beginning in number of bytes. Offset will be clamped into the range between 0 and the total size of the mutable array |
-> Int | Number of randomly generated bytes to write into the array. This number will be clamped between 0 and the total size of the array without the offset. |
-> g | |
-> ST s g |
Fill in a slice of a mutable byte array with randomly generated bytes. This function does not fail, instead it clamps the offset and number of bytes to generate into a valid range.
Since: random-1.3.0
initStdGen :: MonadIO m => m StdGen #
Initialize StdGen
using system entropy (i.e. /dev/urandom
) when it is
available, while falling back on using system time as the seed.
Since: random-1.2.1
setStdGen :: MonadIO m => StdGen -> m () #
Sets the global pseudo-random number generator. Overwrites the contents of
globalStdGen
Since: random-1.0.0
getStdGen :: MonadIO m => m StdGen #
Gets the global pseudo-random number generator. Extracts the contents of
globalStdGen
Since: random-1.0.0
newStdGen :: MonadIO m => m StdGen #
Applies split
to the current global pseudo-random generator
globalStdGen
, updates it with one of the results,
and returns the other.
Since: random-1.0.0
getStdRandom :: MonadIO m => (StdGen -> (a, StdGen)) -> m a #
Uses the supplied function to get a value from the current global
random generator, and updates the global generator with the new generator
returned by the function. For example, rollDice
produces a pseudo-random integer
between 1 and 6:
>>>
rollDice = getStdRandom (randomR (1, 6))
>>>
replicateM 10 (rollDice :: IO Int)
[1,1,1,4,5,6,1,2,2,5]
This is an outdated function and it is recommended to switch to its
equivalent applyAtomicGen
instead, possibly with the
globalStdGen
if relying on the global state is
acceptable.
>>>
import System.Random.Stateful
>>>
rollDice = applyAtomicGen (uniformR (1, 6)) globalStdGen
>>>
replicateM 10 (rollDice :: IO Int)
[2,1,1,5,4,3,6,6,3,2]

randomRIO :: (Random a, MonadIO m) => (a, a) -> m a #
A variant of randomRM

pseudo-random number generator globalStdGen
>>>
randomRIO (2020, 2100) :: IO Int
2028
Similar to randomIO
, this function is equivalent to
and is included in this interface for historical reasons and
backwards compatibility. It is recommended to use
getStdRandom
randomR
uniformRM
instead, possibly with the
globalStdGen
if relying on the global state is
acceptable.
