Readme
A seeded pseudorandom number generator based on the linear congruential generator algorithm.
A port of purescript-lcg.
Uses fp-ts
as a peer dependency.
npm install fp-ts @no-day/fp-ts-lcg
// index.js
const lcg = require("@no-day/lcg");
let seed = lcg.mkSeed(3532);
for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
console.log(lcg.unSeed(seed));
seed = lcg.lcgNext(seed);
}
Result:
node index.js

The generated seeds are pseudo random. Meaning, that whenever the same initial seed is chosen (here it's 3532), the results of the next seeds will be always the same. The generated seeds will be equally distributed in the range of lcg.seedMin
and lcg.seedMax
.
