NAME
Math::Random::ISAAC::PP - Pure Perl port of the ISAAC PRNG algorithm
VERSION
version 1.004
SYNOPSIS
This module implements the same interface as "Math::Random::ISAAC" and can be used as a
drop-in replacement. However, 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.
Selecting the backend to use manually really only has two uses:
o If you are trying to avoid the small overhead incurred with dispatching method calls
to the appropriate backend modules.
o 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();
