Math::R...SAAC::PP(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay so this is the Math::R...SAAC::PP(3) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation pile, and the module is Math::Random::ISAAC::PP — a Pure Perl port of the ISAAC PRNG algorithm. Periodt. 💅

🌈 VERSION 🌈

version 1.004 — that's the vibe check, bestie. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

This module implements the same interface as Math::Random::ISAAC and can be used as a drop-in replacement. But lowkey, it is recommended that you let the Math::Random::ISAAC module decide whether to use the PurePerl or XS version of this module, instead of choosing manually. Trust the process. 🫶

Selecting the backend to use manually really only has two uses:

• If you are trying to avoid the small overhead incurred with dispatching method calls to the appropriate backend modules.
• If you are testing the module for performance and wish to explicitly decide which module you would like to use.

Example code:

# With Math::Random::ISAAC
my $rng = Math::Random::ISAAC->new(time);
my $rand = $rng->rand();

# With Math::Random::ISAAC::PP
my $rng = Math::Random::ISAAC::PP->new(time);
my $rand = $rng->rand();

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

See Math::Random::ISAAC for the full description. That's literally it — no extra lore, bestie.
