Since the ``Ferrenberg affair’’ it is known to a broad community that statistical tests alone do not suffice to determine the quality of a generator, but also application-based tests are needed. With the inclusion of an extensible random number library and the definition of a generic interface into the revised C++ standard it will be important to have access to an extensive C++ random number test suite. Most currently available test suites are limited to a subset of tests are written in Fortran or C and cannot easily be used with the C++ random number generator library. | | Source: | arXiv, math.ST/0410385 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
