  • Method Details

    • name

      public String name()
      Description copied from interface: IRandomStandalone

      Returns the canonical name of this instance.

      Specified by:
      name in interface IRandomStandalone
      Returns:
      the canonical name of this instance.

    • init

      public void init(Map<String,byte[]> attributes)
      Description copied from interface: IRandomStandalone

      Initialises the pseudo-random number generator scheme with the appropriate attributes.

      Specified by:
      init in interface IRandomStandalone
      Parameters:
      attributes - a set of name-value pairs that describe the desired future instance behaviour.

    • nextByte

      public byte nextByte() throws IllegalStateException
      Description copied from interface: IRandomStandalone

      Returns the next 8 bits of random data generated from this instance.

      Specified by:
      nextByte in interface IRandomStandalone
      Returns:
      the next 8 bits of random data generated from this instance.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if the instance is not yet initialised. theoretical limit for generating non-repetitive pseudo-random data.

    • nextBytes

      public void nextBytes(byte[] out) throws IllegalStateException
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException

    • nextBytes

      public void nextBytes(byte[] out, int offset, int length) throws IllegalStateException
      Description copied from interface: IRandomStandalone

      Fills the designated byte array, starting from byte at index offset, for a maximum of length bytes with the output of this generator instance.

      Specified by:
      nextBytes in interface IRandomStandalone
      Parameters:
      out - the placeholder to contain the generated random bytes.
      offset - the starting index in out to consider. This method does nothing if this parameter is not within 0 and out.length.
      length - the maximum number of required random bytes. This method does nothing if this parameter is less than 1.
      Throws:
