Comparison with Phobos

  • Does not depend on DRuntime (Better C concept)
random (new implementation and API)
  • Mir Random rand!float/rand!double/rand!real generates saturated real random numbers in (-1, 1). For example, rand!real can produce more than 2^78 unique numbers. In other hand, std.random.uniform01!real produces less than 2^31 unique numbers with default Engine.
  • Mir Random fixes Phobos integer underflow bugs.
  • Addition optimization was added for enumerated types.
  • Random ndslices generation.
random.variable (new)
  • Uniform
  • Exponential
  • Gamma
  • Normal
  • Cauchy
  • ...
random.algorithm (new)
  • Ndslice and range API adaptors
random.engine.* (fixed, reworked)
  • opCall API instead of range interface is used (similar to C++)
  • No default and copy constructors are allowed for generators.
  • unpredictableSeed has not state, returns size_t
  • Any unsigned generators are allowed.
  • min property was removed. Any integer generator can normalize its minimum down to zero.
  • Mt19937: +100% performance for initialization.
  • Mt19937: +54% performance for generation.
  • Mt19937: fixed to be more CPU cache friendly.
  • 64-bit Mt19937 initialization is fixed
  • 64-bit Mt19937 is default for 64-bit targets
  • [WIP] additional Engines, see https://github.com/libmir/mir-random/pulls
