    32  * A generator of uniform pseudorandom values applicable for use in
       
    33  * (among other contexts) isolated parallel computations that may
       
    34  * generate subtasks.  Class {@code L64X256Random} implements
       
    35  * interfaces {@link java.util.Rng} and {@link java.util.SplittableRng},
       
    36  * and therefore supports methods for producing pseudorandomly chosen
       
    37  * numbers of type {@code int}, {@code long}, {@code float}, and {@code double}
       
    38  * as well as creating new split-off {@code L64X256Random} objects,
       
    39  * with similar usages as for class {@link java.util.SplittableRandom}.
       
    40  *
       
    41  * <p>Series of generated values pass the TestU01 BigCrush and PractRand test suites
       
    42  * that measure independence and uniformity properties of random number generators.
       
    43  * (Most recently validated with
       
    44  * <a href="http://simul.iro.umontreal.ca/testu01/tu01.html">version 1.2.3 of TestU01</a>
       
    45  * and <a href="http://pracrand.sourceforge.net">version 0.90 of PractRand</a>.
       
    46  * Note that TestU01 BigCrush was used to test not only values produced by the {@code nextLong()}
       
    47  * method but also the result of bit-reversing each value produced by {@code nextLong()}.)
       
    48  * These tests validate only the methods for certain
       
    49  * types and ranges, but similar properties are expected to hold, at
       
    50  * least approximately, for others as well.
       
    51  *
       
    52  * <p>{@code L64X256Random} is a specific member of the LXM family of algorithms
       
    53  * for pseudorandom number generators.  Every LXM generator consists of two
       
    54  * subgenerators; one is an LCG (Linear Congruential Generator) and the other is
       
    55  * an Xorshift generator.  Each output of an LXM generator is the sum of one
       
    56  * output from each subgenerator, possibly processed by a final mixing function
       
    57  * (but {@code L64X256Random} does not use a mixing function).
       
    58  *
       
    59  * <p>The LCG subgenerator for {@code L64X256Random} has an update step of the
       
    60  * form {@code s = m * s + a}, where {@code s}, {@code m}, and {@code a} are all
       
    61  * of type {@code long}; {@code s} is the mutable state, the multiplier {@code m}
       
    62  * is fixed (the same for all instances of {@code L64X256Random}}) and the addend
       
    63  * {@code a} is a parameter (a final field of the instance).  The parameter
       
    64  * {@code a} is required to be odd (this allows the LCG to have the maximal
       
    65  * period, namely 2<sup>64</sup>); therefore there are 2<sup>63</sup> distinct choices
       
    66  * of parameter.
       
    67  *
       
    68  * <p>The Xorshift subgenerator for {@code L64X256Random} is the {@code xoshiro256} algorithm,
       
    69  * version 1.0 (parameters 17, 45), without any final scrambler such as "+" or "**".
       
    70  * Its state consists of four {@code long} fields {@code x0}, {@code x1}, {@code x2},
       
    71  * and {@code x3}, which can take on any values provided that they are not all zero.
       
    72  * The period of this subgenerator is 2<sup>256</sup>-1.
       
    73  *
       
    74  * <p> Because the periods 2<sup>64</sup> and 2<sup>256</sup>-1 of the two subgenerators
       
    75  * are relatively prime, the <em>period</em> of any single {@code L64X256Random} object 
       
    76  * (the length of the series of generated 64-bit values before it repeats) is the product
       
    77  * of the periods of the subgenerators, that is, 2<sup>64</sup>(2<sup>256</sup>-1),
       
    78  * which is just slightly smaller than 2<sup>320</sup>.  Moreover, if two distinct
       
    79  * {@code L64X256Random} objects have different {@code a} parameters, then their
       
    80  * cycles of produced values will be different.
       
    81  *
       
    82  * <p>The 64-bit values produced by the {@code nextLong()} method are exactly equidistributed.
       
    83  * For any specific instance of {@code L64X256Random}, over the course of its cycle each
       
    84  * of the 2<sup>64</sup> possible {@code long} values will be produced 2<sup>256</sup>-1 times.
       
    85  * The values produced by the {@code nextInt()}, {@code nextFloat()}, and {@code nextDouble()}
       
    86  * methods are likewise exactly equidistributed.
       
    87  *
       
    88  * <p> In fact, the 64-bit values produced by the {@code nextLong()} method are 4-equidistributed.
       
    89  * To be precise: for any specific instance of {@code L64X256Random}, consider
       
    90  * the (overlapping) length-4 subsequences of the cycle of 64-bit values produced by
       
    91  * {@code nextLong()} (assuming no other methods are called that would affect the state).
       
    92  * There are 2<sup>64</sup>(2<sup>256</sup>-1) such subsequences, and each subsequence,
       
    93  * which consists of 4 64-bit values, can have one of 2<sup>256</sup> values. Of those
       
    94  * 2<sup>256</sup> subsequence values, nearly all of them (2<sup>256</sup>-2<sup>64</sup>)
       
    95  * occur 2<sup>64</sup> times over the course of the entire cycle, and the other
       
    96  * 2<sup>64</sup> subsequence values occur only 2<sup>64</sup>-1 times.  So the ratio
       
    97  * of the probability of getting one of the less common subsequence values and the
       
    98  * probability of getting one of the more common subsequence values is 1-2<sup>-64</sup>.
       
    99  * (Note that the set of 2<sup>64</sup> less-common subsequence values will differ from
       
   100  * one instance of {@code L64X256Random} to another, as a function of the additive
       
   101  * parameter of the LCG.)  The values produced by the {@code nextInt()}, {@code nextFloat()},
       
   102  * and {@code nextDouble()} methods are likewise 4-equidistributed.
       
   103  *
       
   104  * <p>Method {@link #split} constructs and returns a new {@code L64X256Random}
       
   105  * instance that shares no mutable state with the current instance. However, with
       
   106  * very high probability, the values collectively generated by the two objects
       
   107  * have the same statistical properties as if the same quantity of values were
       
   108  * generated by a single thread using a single {@code L64X256Random} object.
       
   109  * This is because, with high probability, distinct {@code L64X256Random} objects
       
   110  * have distinct {@code a} parameters and therefore use distinct members of the
       
   111  * algorithmic family; and even if their {@code a} parameters are the same, with
       
   112  * very high probability they will traverse different parts of their common state
       
   113  * cycle.
       
   114  *
       
   115  * <p>As with {@link java.util.SplittableRandom}, instances of
       
   116  * {@code L64X256Random} are <em>not</em> thread-safe.
       
   117  * They are designed to be split, not shared, across threads. For
       
   118  * example, a {@link java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinTask} fork/join-style
       
   119  * computation using random numbers might include a construction
       
   120  * of the form {@code new Subtask(someL64X256Random.split()).fork()}.
       
   121  *
       
   122  * <p>This class provides additional methods for generating random
       
   123  * streams, that employ the above techniques when used in
       
   124  * {@code stream.parallel()} mode.
       
   125  *
       
   126  * <p>Instances of {@code L64X256Random} are not cryptographically
       
   127  * secure.  Consider instead using {@link java.security.SecureRandom}
       
   128  * in security-sensitive applications. Additionally,
       
   129  * default-constructed instances do not use a cryptographically random
       
   130  * seed unless the {@linkplain System#getProperty system property}
       
   131  * {@code java.util.secureRandomSeed} is set to {@code true}.

   139      * Implementation Overview.
       
   140      *
       
   141      * The split() operation uses the current generator to choose six new 64-bit
       
   142      * long values that are then used to initialize the parameter `a` and the
       
   143      * state variables `s`, `x0`, `x1`, `x2`, and `x3` for a newly constructed
       
   144      * generator.
       
   145      *
       
   146      * With extremely high probability, no two generators so chosen
       
   147      * will have the same `a` parameter, and testing has indicated
       
   148      * that the values generated by two instances of {@code L64X256Random}
       
   149      * will be (approximately) independent if have different values for `a`.
       
   150      *
       
   151      * The default (no-argument) constructor, in essence, uses
       
   152      * "defaultGen" to generate six new 64-bit values for the same
       
   153      * purpose.  Multiple generators created in this way will certainly
       
   154      * differ in their `a` parameters.  The defaultGen state must be accessed
       
   155      * in a thread-safe manner, so we use an AtomicLong to represent
       
   156      * this state.  To bootstrap the defaultGen, we start off using a
       
   157      * seed based on current time unless the
       
   158      * java.util.secureRandomSeed property is set. This serves as a
       
   159      * slimmed-down (and insecure) variant of SecureRandom that also
       
   160      * avoids stalls that may occur when using /dev/random.
