bernoulli_distribution::operator()

Returns a random value.

template<class Engine>
    result_type operator()(Engine& eng);

Parameters

  • Engine
    The type of the random engine.

  • eng
    The random engine.

Remarks

The member function uses the engine eng as a source of uniformly distributed random integer values and returns true with probability given by the stored value stored_p.

Example

 

// std_tr1__random__bernoulli_distribution_operator_fn.cpp 
// compile with: /EHsc 
#include <random> 
#include <iostream> 
 
typedef std::tr1::mt19937 Myeng; 
typedef std::tr1::bernoulli_distribution Mydist; 
int main() 
    { 
    Myeng eng; 
    Mydist dist(0.6); 
    Mydist::input_type engval = eng(); 
    Mydist::result_type distval = dist(eng); 
 
    distval = distval;  // to quiet "unused" warnings 
    engval = engval; 
 
    std::cout << "p == " << dist.p() << std::endl; 
 
    dist.reset(); // discard any cached values 
    std::cout << "a random value == " << std::boolalpha 
        << dist(eng) << std::endl; 
    std::cout << "a random value == " << std::boolalpha 
        << dist(eng) << std::endl; 
    std::cout << "a random value == " << std::boolalpha 
        << dist(eng) << std::endl; 
 
    return (0); 
    } 
 

p == 0.6 a random value == false a random value == false a random value == true
