{{alias}}( a, b[, options] )
|
|
Returns a readable stream for generating pseudorandom numbers drawn from an
|
|
arcsine distribution.
|
|
|
|
In addition to standard readable stream events, the returned stream emits a
|
|
'state' event after internally generating `siter` pseudorandom numbers,
|
|
which is useful when wanting to deterministically capture a stream's
|
|
underlying PRNG state.
|
|
|
|
Parameters
|
|
----------
|
|
a: number
|
|
Minimum support.
|
|
|
|
b: number
|
|
Maximum support.
|
|
|
|
options: Object (optional)
|
|
Options.
|
|
|
|
options.objectMode: boolean (optional)
|
|
Specifies whether a stream should operate in "objectMode". Default:
|
|
false.
|
|
|
|
options.encoding: string|null (optional)
|
|
Specifies how Buffer objects should be decoded to strings. Default:
|
|
null.
|
|
|
|
options.highWaterMark: integer (optional)
|
|
Specifies the maximum number of bytes to store in an internal buffer
|
|
before ceasing to generate additional pseudorandom numbers.
|
|
|
|
options.sep: string (optional)
|
|
Separator used to join streamed data. This option is only applicable
|
|
when a stream is not in "objectMode". Default: '\n'.
|
|
|
|
options.iter: integer (optional)
|
|
Number of iterations.
|
|
|
|
options.prng: Function (optional)
|
|
Pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) for generating uniformly
|
|
distributed pseudorandom numbers on the interval `[0,1)`. If provided,
|
|
the `state` and `seed` options are ignored. In order to seed the
|
|
returned iterator, one must seed the provided `prng` (assuming the
|
|
provided `prng` is seedable).
|
|
|
|
options.seed: integer|ArrayLikeObject<integer> (optional)
|
|
Pseudorandom number generator seed. The seed may be either a positive
|
|
unsigned 32-bit integer or, for arbitrary length seeds, an array-like
|
|
object containing unsigned 32-bit integers.
|
|
|
|
options.state: Uint32Array (optional)
|
|
Pseudorandom number generator state. If provided, the `seed` option is
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
options.copy: boolean (optional)
|
|
Boolean indicating whether to copy a provided pseudorandom number
|
|
generator state. Setting this option to `false` allows sharing state
|
|
between two or more pseudorandom number generators. Setting this option
|
|
to `true` ensures that a returned iterator has exclusive control over
|
|
its internal state. Default: true.
|
|
|
|
options.siter: integer (optional)
|
|
Number of iterations after which to emit the PRNG state. Default: 1e308.
|
|
|
|

|
Returns a function for creating readable streams which generate pseudorandom

|
distribution parameters be provided at each invocation.
