<p>
Random numbers are generated in conjunction with Boost.Random.
</p>
<p>
There is a single generator that supports generating random integers with
large bit counts: <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/independent_bits_engine.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">independent_bits_engine</span></code></a>. This type
can be used with either <span class="emphasis"><em>unbounded</em></span> integer types, or
with <span class="emphasis"><em>bounded</em></span> (ie fixed precision) unsigned integers:

In addition, the generator adaptors <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/discard_block_engine.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">discard_block</span></code></a>, <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/xor_combine_engine.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">xor_combine_engine</span></code></a> and <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/discrete_distribution.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">discrete_distribution</span></code></a> can be used
with multiprecision types. Note that if you seed an <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">independent_bits_engine</span></code>,
then you are actually seeding the underlying generator, and should therefore
provide a sequence of unsigned 32-bit values as the seed.
</p>
<p>
Alternatively we can generate integers in a given range using <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/uniform_int_distribution.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">uniform_int_distribution</span></code></a>, this
will invoke the underlying engine multiple times to build up the required
number of bits in the result:

multiprecision generator such as <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/independent_bits_engine.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">independent_bits_engine</span></code></a>. Or to

Note however, the distributions do not invoke the generator multiple times
to fill up the mantissa of a multiprecision floating-point type with random
bits. For these therefore, we should probably use a multiprecision generator
(ie <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">independent_bits_engine</span></code>)
in combination with the distribution:

And finally, it is possible to use the floating-point generators <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/lagged_fibonacci_01_engine.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">lagged_fibonacci_01_engine</span></code></a> and
<a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/boost/random/subtract_with_idp144360752.html" target="_top"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">subtract_with_carry_01_engine</span></code></a> directly
with multiprecision floating-point types. It's worth noting however, that
there is a distinct lack of literature on generating high bit-count random
numbers, and therefore a lack of "known good" parameters to use
with these generators in this situation. For this reason, these should probably
be used for research purposes only:
