29 <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2> | |
30 <p><strong>MathUtil</strong> module provides a variety of common math functions not available in core | |
31 Perl package or some other useful math utilities. In order to be consistent with other | |
32 Perl functions, name of all the functions in this package are in lowercase which differs | |
33 from MayaChemTools naming convention for function names.</p> | |
34 <p><strong>MathUtil</strong> module provides the following functions:</p> | |
35 <p> <a href="#generateprimenumbersuptocount">GeneratePrimeNumbersUpToCount</a>, <a href="#generateprimenumbersuptolimit">GeneratePrimeNumbersUpToLimit</a>, <a href="#acos">acos</a>, <a href="#asin">asin</a>, <a href="#ceil">ceil</a> | |
36 , <a href="#floor">floor</a>, <a href="#log10">log10</a>, <a href="#max">max</a>, <a href="#min">min</a>, <a href="#random">random</a>, <a href="#round">round</a>, <a href="#srandom">srandom</a>, <a href="#tan">tan</a> | |

122 <p>The random number generator implemented in MayaChemTools is a variant of linear | |
123 congruential generator (LCG) as described by Miller et al. [ Ref 120 ]. It is | |
124 also referred to as Lehmer random number generator or Park-Miller random number | |
125 generator.</p> | |
126 <p>Unlike Perl's core random number generator function rand, the random number | |
127 generator implemented in MayaChemTools generates consistent random values | |
128 across different platforms - Windows, CygWin, Linux, Unix - for a specific random | |
129 seed.</p> | |

132 <dd> | |
133 <div class="OptionsBox"> | |
134 $Seed = srandom($Seed);</div> | |
135 <p>Sets random number seed to be used by <random> function and returns seed value.</p> | |
136 <p>The random number seed is recommeded to be an integer between 1 and 2**31 - 2 | |
137 [Ref 120] which translates to be 1 and 2147483646.</p> | |
138 <p>The default seed is set to 123456789.</p> | |
