Ideally, all {@code JumpableRng} objects produced by iterative + * jumping from a single original {@code JumpableRng} object are + * statistically independent of one another and individually uniform. + * In practice, one must settle for some approximation to independence + * and uniformity. In particular, a specific implementation may + * assume that each generator in a stream produced by the {@code jumps} + * method is used to produce a number of values no larger than either + * 264 or the square root of its period. Implementors are + * advised to use algorithms whose period is at least 2127. + * + *
Methods are provided to perform a single jump operation and also
+ * to produce a stream of generators produced from the original by
+ * iterative copying and jumping of internal state. A typical
+ * strategy for a multithreaded application is to create a single
+ * {@code JumpableRng} object, calls its {@code jumps} method exactly
+ * once, and then parcel out generators from the resulting stream, one
+ * to each thread. It is generally not a good idea to call {@code jump}
+ * on a generator that was itself produced by the {@code jumps} method,
+ * because the result may be a generator identical to another
+ * generator already produce by that call to the {@code jumps} method.
+ * For this reason, the return type of the {@code jumps} method is
+ * {@code Stream An implementation of the {@code JumpableRng} interface must provide
+ * concrete definitions for the methods {@code nextInt()}, {@code nextLong},
+ * {@code period()}, {@code copy()}, {@code jump()}, and {@code defaultJumpDistance()}.
+ * Default implementations are provided for all other methods.
+ *
+ * Objects that implement {@code java.util.JumpableRng} are
+ * typically not cryptographically secure. Consider instead using
+ * {@link java.security.SecureRandom} to get a cryptographically
+ * secure pseudo-random number generator for use by
+ * security-sensitive applications.
