std::linear_congruential_engine 
 
 
 
 Member functions
linear_congruential_engine::seed
 Generation
 Characteristics
 Non-member functions
(C++11)(C++11)(until C++20)
(C++11)(C++11)
void seed( result_type value = default_seed );
 (1) 
 (since C++11) 
template< class SeedSeq > 
void seed( SeedSeq& seq );
 (2)
 (since C++11)
void seed( SeedSeq& seq );
Sets the state of the random-number engine.
[edit] Parameters
 value
 -
 seed value to use to set the state
 seq
 -
 seed sequence to use to set the state
[edit] Exceptions
[edit] Complexity
1) Same as std::linear_congruential_engine (value).
2) Same as std::linear_congruential_engine (seq).
Defect reports
The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.
| DR | Applied to | Behavior as published | Correct behavior | 
|---|---|---|---|
| LWG 2181 | C++11 | overload (2) would not throw even if the seq.generatecall throws | propagates the exception |
