    34  * A generator of uniform pseudorandom values applicable for use in
       
    35  * (among other contexts) isolated parallel computations that may
       
    36  * generate subtasks.  Class {@link L64X256MixRandom} implements
       
    37  * interfaces {@link RandomGenerator} and {@link SplittableGenerator},
       
    38  * and therefore supports methods for producing pseudorandomly chosen
       
    39  * numbers of type {@code int}, {@code long}, {@code float}, and {@code double}
       
    40  * as well as creating new split-off {@link L64X256MixRandom} objects,
       
    41  * with similar usages as for class {@link java.util.SplittableRandom}.
       
    42  * <p>
       
    43  * Series of generated values pass the TestU01 BigCrush and PractRand test suites
       
    44  * that measure independence and uniformity properties of random number generators.
       
    45  * (Most recently validated with
       
    46  * <a href="http://simul.iro.umontreal.ca/testu01/tu01.html">version 1.2.3 of TestU01</a>
       
    47  * and <a href="http://pracrand.sourceforge.net">version 0.90 of PractRand</a>.
       
    48  * Note that TestU01 BigCrush was used to test not only values produced by the {@code nextLong()}
       
    49  * method but also the result of bit-reversing each value produced by {@code nextLong()}.)
       
    50  * These tests validate only the methods for certain
       
    51  * types and ranges, but similar properties are expected to hold, at
       
    52  * least approximately, for others as well.
       
    53  * <p>
       
    54  * {@link L64X256MixRandom} is a specific member of the LXM family of algorithms
       
    55  * for pseudorandom number generators.  Every LXM generator consists of two
       
    56  * subgenerators; one is an LCG (Linear Congruential Generator) and the other is
       
    57  * an Xorshift generator.  Each output of an LXM generator is the result of
       
    58  * combining state from the LCG with state from the Xorshift generator by
       
    59  * using a Mixing function (and then the state of the LCG and the state of the
       
    60  * Xorshift generator are advanced).
       
    61  * <p>
       
    62  * The LCG subgenerator for {@link L64X256MixRandom} has an update step of the
       
    63  * form {@code s = m * s + a}, where {@code s}, {@code m}, and {@code a} are all
       
    64  * of type {@code long}; {@code s} is the mutable state, the multiplier {@code m}
       
    65  * is fixed (the same for all instances of {@link L64X256MixRandom}) and the addend
       
    66  * {@code a} is a parameter (a final field of the instance).  The parameter
       
    67  * {@code a} is required to be odd (this allows the LCG to have the maximal
       
    68  * period, namely 2<sup>64</sup>); therefore there are 2<sup>63</sup> distinct choices
       
    69  * of parameter.
       
    70  * <p>
       
    71  * The Xorshift subgenerator for {@link L64X256MixRandom} is the {@code xoshiro256} algorithm,
       
    72  * version 1.0 (parameters 17, 45), without any final scrambler such as "+" or "**".
       
    73  * Its state consists of four {@code long} fields {@code x0}, {@code x1}, {@code x2},
       
    74  * and {@code x3}, which can take on any values provided that they are not all zero.
       
    75  * The period of this subgenerator is 2<sup>256</sup>-1.
       
    76  * <p>
       
    77  * The mixing function for {@link L64X256MixRandom} is {@link RandomSupport.mixLea64}
       
    78  * applied to the argument {@code (s + x0)}.
       
    79  * <p>
       
    80  * Because the periods 2<sup>64</sup> and 2<sup>256</sup>-1 of the two subgenerators
       
    81  * are relatively prime, the <em>period</em> of any single {@link L64X256MixRandom} object
       
    82  * (the length of the series of generated 64-bit values before it repeats) is the product
       
    83  * of the periods of the subgenerators, that is, 2<sup>64</sup>(2<sup>256</sup>-1),
       
    84  * which is just slightly smaller than 2<sup>320</sup>.  Moreover, if two distinct
       
    85  * {@link L64X256MixRandom} objects have different {@code a} parameters, then their
       
    86  * cycles of produced values will be different.
       
    87  * <p>
       
    88  * The 64-bit values produced by the {@code nextLong()} method are exactly equidistributed.
       
    89  * For any specific instance of {@link L64X256MixRandom}, over the course of its cycle each
       
    90  * of the 2<sup>64</sup> possible {@code long} values will be produced 2<sup>256</sup>-1 times.
       
    91  * The values produced by the {@code nextInt()}, {@code nextFloat()}, and {@code nextDouble()}
       
    92  * methods are likewise exactly equidistributed.
       
    93  * <p>
       
    94  * In fact, the 64-bit values produced by the {@code nextLong()} method are 4-equidistributed.
       
    95  * To be precise: for any specific instance of {@link L64X256MixRandom}, consider
       
    96  * the (overlapping) length-4 subsequences of the cycle of 64-bit values produced by
       
    97  * {@code nextLong()} (assuming no other methods are called that would affect the state).
       
    98  * There are 2<sup>64</sup>(2<sup>256</sup>-1) such subsequences, and each subsequence,
       
    99  * which consists of 4 64-bit values, can have one of 2<sup>256</sup> values. Of those
       
   100  * 2<sup>256</sup> subsequence values, nearly all of them (2<sup>256</sup>-2<sup>64</sup>)
       
   101  * occur 2<sup>64</sup> times over the course of the entire cycle, and the other
       
   102  * 2<sup>64</sup> subsequence values occur only 2<sup>64</sup>-1 times.  So the ratio
       
   103  * of the probability of getting any specific one of the less common subsequence values and the
       
   104  * probability of getting any specific one of the more common subsequence values is 1-2<sup>-64</sup>.
       
   105  * (Note that the set of 2<sup>64</sup> less-common subsequence values will differ from
       
   106  * one instance of {@link L64X256MixRandom} to another, as a function of the additive
       
   107  * parameter of the LCG.)  The values produced by the {@code nextInt()}, {@code nextFloat()},
       
   108  * and {@code nextDouble()} methods are likewise 4-equidistributed.
       
   109  * <p>
       
   110  * Method {@link #split} constructs and returns a new {@link L64X256MixRandom}
       
   111  * instance that shares no mutable state with the current instance. However, with
       
   112  * very high probability, the values collectively generated by the two objects
       
   113  * have the same statistical properties as if the same quantity of values were
       
   114  * generated by a single thread using a single {@link L64X256MixRandom} object.
       
   115  * This is because, with high probability, distinct {@link L64X256MixRandom} objects
       
   116  * have distinct {@code a} parameters and therefore use distinct members of the
       
   117  * algorithmic family; and even if their {@code a} parameters are the same, with
       
   118  * very high probability they will traverse different parts of their common state
       
   119  * cycle.
       
   120  * <p>
       
   121  * As with {@link java.util.SplittableRandom}, instances of
       
   122  * {@link L64X256MixRandom} are <em>not</em> thread-safe.
       
   123  * They are designed to be split, not shared, across threads. For
       
   124  * example, a {@link java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinTask} fork/join-style
       
   125  * computation using random numbers might include a construction
       
   126  * of the form {@code new Subtask(someL64X256MixRandom.split()).fork()}.
       
   127  * <p>
       
   128  * This class provides additional methods for generating random
       
   129  * streams, that employ the above techniques when used in
       
   130  * {@code stream.parallel()} mode.
       
   131  * <p>
       
   132  * Instances of {@link L64X256MixRandom} are not cryptographically
       
   133  * secure.  Consider instead using {@link java.security.SecureRandom}
       
   134  * in security-sensitive applications. Additionally,
       
   135  * default-constructed instances do not use a cryptographically random
       
   136  * seed unless the {@linkplain System#getProperty system property}
       
   137  * {@code java.util.secureRandomSeed} is set to {@code true}.

   144      * Implementation Overview.
       
   145      *
       
   146      * The split operation uses the current generator to choose six new 64-bit
       
   147      * long values that are then used to initialize the parameter `a` and the
       
   148      * state variables `s`, `x0`, `x1`, `x2`, and `x3` for a newly constructed
       
   149      * generator.
       
   150      *
       
   151      * With extremely high probability, no two generators so chosen
       
   152      * will have the same `a` parameter, and testing has indicated
       
   153      * that the values generated by two instances of {@link L64X256MixRandom}
       
   154      * will be (approximately) independent if have different values for `a`.
       
   155      *
       
   156      * The default (no-argument) constructor, in essence, uses
       
   157      * "defaultGen" to generate six new 64-bit values for the same
       
   158      * purpose.  Multiple generators created in this way will certainly
       
   159      * differ in their `a` parameters.  The defaultGen state must be accessed
       
   160      * in a thread-safe manner, so we use an AtomicLong to represent
       
   161      * this state.  To bootstrap the defaultGen, we start off using a
       
   162      * seed based on current time unless the
       
   163      * java.util.secureRandomSeed property is set. This serves as a
       
   164      * slimmed-down (and insecure) variant of SecureRandom that also
       
   165      * avoids stalls that may occur when using /dev/random.
