std::unifor...distribution(3)

💖 std::uniform_int_distribution::uniform_int_distribution 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the C++ Standard Libary manual page for std::uniform_int_distribution::uniform_int_distribution — you may also spot the tag std::unifor...distribution(3) chilling at the top, because the terminal had to truncate it 😭. we're gonna keep every detail and still make it cute. periodt.

🌸 NAME 🌸

• std::uniform_int_distribution::uniform_int_distribution — std::uniform_int_distribution::uniform_int_distribution (yes, it's the same mouthful twice, and it's iconic 💅)

🦋 Synopsis 🦋

uniform_int_distribution() : uniform_int_distribution(0) { }
explicit uniform_int_distribution( IntType a,
                                   IntType b =
                                   std::numeric_limits<IntType>::max() );
explicit uniform_int_distribution( const param_type& params );

• (1) (since C++11) — the no-argument constructor.
• (2) (since C++11) — the a/b constructor, where b defaults to std::numeric_limits<IntType>::max().
• (3) (since C++11) — the params constructor.

this constructor constructs new distribution object ✨

• (2) uses a and b as the distribution parameters.
• (3) uses params as the distribution parameters.

⚠️ the behavior is undefined if a > b ⚠️ — fr fr, not a cute look, do not pass a bigger minimum than maximum 💀

🎀 Parameters 🎀

• a — the a distribution parameter (minimum value)
• b — the b distribution parameter (maximum value)
• params — the distribution parameter set

👑 Defect reports 👑

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

• DR: P0935R0 — Applied to: C++11; Behavior as published: default constructor was explicit; Correct behavior: made implicit.

okay bye bestie 🫶 source is http://cppreference.com, version/date is 2024.06.10, and the manual tag is std::unifor...distribution(3) — slay and read safely 💅✨
