|
|
|
<p>[<code>Uniform</code>] is the standard distribution to sample uniformly from a range;
|
|
|
e.g. <code>Uniform::new_inclusive(1, 6)</code> can sample integers from 1 to 6, like a
|
|
|
standard die. [<code>Rng::gen_range</code>] supports any type supported by
|
|
|
[<code>Uniform</code>].</p>
|
|
|
<p>This distribution is provided with support for several primitive types
|
|
|
(all integer and floating-point types) as well as [<code>std::time::Duration</code>],
|
|
|
and supports extension to user-defined types via a type-specific <em>back-end</em>
|
|
|
implementation.</p>
|
|
|
<p>The types <a href="crate::distributions::uniform::UniformInt"><code>UniformInt</code></a>, <a href="crate::distributions::uniform::UniformFloat"><code>UniformFloat</code></a> and <a href="crate::distributions::uniform::UniformDuration"><code>UniformDuration</code></a> are the
|
|
|
back-ends supporting sampling from primitive integer and floating-point
|
|
|
ranges as well as from [<code>std::time::Duration</code>]; these types do not normally
|
|
|
need to be used directly (unless implementing a derived back-end).</p>

|
|
|
<p>To extend [<code>Uniform</code>] to support your own types, write a back-end which
|
|
|
implements the <a href="crate::distributions::uniform::UniformSampler"><code>UniformSampler</code></a> trait, then implement the <a href="crate::distributions::uniform::SampleUniform"><code>SampleUniform</code></a>
|
|
|
helper trait to "register" your back-end. See the <code>MyF32</code> example below.</p>
|
|
|
<p>At a minimum, the back-end needs to store any parameters needed for sampling
|
|
|
(e.g. the target range) and implement <code>new</code>, <code>new_inclusive</code> and <code>sample</code>.
|
|
|
Those methods should include an assert to check the range is valid (i.e.
|
|
|
<code>low < high</code>). The example below merely wraps another back-end.</p>
|
|
|
<p>The <code>new</code>, <code>new_inclusive</code> and <code>sample_single</code> functions use arguments of
|
|
|
type SampleBorrow<X> in order to support passing in values by reference or
|
|
|
by value. In the implementation of these functions, you can choose to
|
|
|
simply use the reference returned by <a href="crate::distributions::uniform::SampleBorrow::borrow"><code>SampleBorrow::borrow</code></a>, or you can choose
|
|
|
to copy or clone the value, whatever is appropriate for your type.</p>
