Creates a new RandomGenerator object which is completely independent of other RandomGenerator objects and random functions.
Contents
Function
Synopsis
rng = love.math.newRandomGenerator( )
Arguments
None
Returns
RandomGenerator rng- The new Random Number Generator object.
Notes
The default seed used in version 11.x is the following low/high pair: 0xCBBF7A44, 0x0139408D.
Function
Synopsis
rng = love.math.newRandomGenerator( seed )
Arguments
number seed- The initial seed number to use for this object.
Returns
RandomGenerator rng- The new Random Number Generator object.
Notes
Function
Synopsis
rng = love.math.newRandomGenerator( low, high )
Arguments
number low- The lower 32 bits of the seed number to use for this object.
number high- The higher 32 bits of the seed number to use for this object.
Returns
RandomGenerator rng- The new Random Number Generator object.
Notes
Examples
Creates a new RandomGenerator object, then generates a number between 1 and 100 inclusive.
function love.load()
rng = love.math.newRandomGenerator()
randomNumber = rng:random(1,100)
end
