bernoulli_distribution::operator()

Returns a random value.

template<class Engine>
    result_type operator()(Engine& eng);
template<class Engine>
    result_type operator()(Engine& eng,
        const param_type& par0);

Parameters

• Engine
  The type of the random engine.

• eng
  The random engine.

• par0
  The parameter package used to return the random value.

Remarks

The first member function uses the engine eng as a source of uniformly distributed random integer values and returns true with probability given by the stored value stored_p.

The second member function behaves the same, except that it uses the parameters stored in par0.

Example

// std_tr1__random__bernoulli_distribution_operator_fn.cpp 
// compile with: /EHsc 
#include <random> 
#include <iostream> 
 
typedef std::mt19937 Myeng; 
typedef std::bernoulli_distribution Mydist; 
int main() 
    { 
    Myeng eng; 
    Mydist dist(0.6); 
    Mydist::input_type engval = eng(); 
    Mydist::result_type distval = dist(eng); 
 
    distval = distval;  // to quiet "unused" warnings 
    engval = engval; 
 
    std::cout << "p == " << dist.p() << std::endl; 
 
    dist.reset(); // discard any cached values 
    std::cout << "a random value == " << std::boolalpha 
        << dist(eng) << std::endl; 
    std::cout << "a random value == " << std::boolalpha 
        << dist(eng) << std::endl; 
    std::cout << "a random value == " << std::boolalpha 
        << dist(eng) << std::endl; 
 
    return (0); 
    } 
 

p == 0.6
a random value == false
a random value == false
a random value == true
