std::cauchy...:operator()(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is the page for std::cauchy_distribution::operator() — and yep, the NAME line is literally std::cauchy_distribution::operator() - std::cauchy_distribution::operator() 💅. It comes from the C++ Standard Libary (their spelling, not mine 💀), and it's the call operator that gives you random numbers. main character energy fr fr ✨

💖 Synopsis 💖

Two overloads, both since C++11, both absolute icons:

template< class Generator >                                       (1)
(since C++11)
result_type operator()( Generator& g );
template< class Generator >                                       (2)
(since C++11)
result_type operator()( Generator& g, const param_type& params );

Generates random numbers that are distributed according to the associated probability function. The entropy is acquired by calling g.operator(). 🎀

The first version uses the associated parameter set, the second version uses params. The associated parameter set is not modified. the way it just leaves the associated params alone, obsessed 🫶

🧚 Parameters 🧚

• g — a uniform random bit generator object. It's the randomness source, no cap.
• params — distribution parameter set to use instead of the associated one. Like, "use this set instead," bestie. ✨

🦋 Type requirements 🦋

• Generator must meet the requirements of UniformRandomBitGenerator. That's the whole vibe check.

🎀 Return value 🎀

The generated random number. That's it. That's the icon. 💖

🔥 Complexity 🔥

Amortized constant number of invocations of g.operator(). So it's not out here doing a whole side quest every single time, ngl. 💅
