where the maximum values of the XorShift function values are given by the following enums.

• enum {MAX_URAND = 0xffffffffU};
• enum {MAX_URAND64 = 0xffffffffffffffffULL-1};
• enum {MAX_RAND = static_cast(0xffffffffU/2)};
• enum {MAX_RAND64 = static_cast<int64_t>(0xffffffffffffffffULL/2-1)};

Synopsis

Kokkos_Random provides the structure necessary for pseudorandom number generators. These generators are based on Vigna, Sebastiano (2014). ["An experimental exploration of Marsaglia's xorshift generators, scrambled." See: http://arxiv.org/abs/1402.6246] .
