I have a simple rejection sampling application which is wrapped in a class and used externally as the dummy example below shows. I was able to adapt this post to a boost::multiprecision use case. However I'm not sure how to appropriately seed the generator
and can't find any random_device
equivalent for boost.
The below code 'works', but if you run it multiple times in quick succession you will get the same random numbers which I don't want. Is there something more sensitive than time(NULL)
?
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/multiprecision/cpp_dec_float.hpp>
#include <boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp>
#include <boost/random.hpp>
using namespace boost::multiprecision; // used only for SO post
using namespace boost::random;
typedef independent_bits_engine<boost::mt19937, std::numeric_limits<cpp_dec_float_50>::digits, cpp_int> generator;
generator &gen()
{
thread_local static generator genny(time(NULL));
return genny;
}
class dummy {
public:
dummy() = default;
cpp_dec_float_50 rejectionSample() {
uniform_real_distribution<cpp_dec_float_50> ur(0,1);
cpp_dec_float_50 x = ur(gen());
while (x > 0.1)
x = ur(gen());
return x;
}
};
int main()
{
std::cout << std::setprecision(std::numeric_limits<cpp_dec_float_50>::digits10) << std::showpoint;
dummy d;
int nToGet = 5;
for (int i = 0; i < nToGet; ++i)
std::cout << d.rejectionSample() << std::endl;
}
