Public Member Functions | |
virtual byte | GenerateByte ()=0 |
generate new random byte and return it | |
virtual unsigned int | GenerateBit () |
generate new random bit and return it | |
virtual word32 | GenerateWord32 (word32 a=0, word32 b=0xffffffffL) |
generate a random 32 bit word in the range min to max, inclusive | |
