---|---|---|
brng |
INTEGER, INTENT(IN) |
Index of the basic generator to initialize the stream. See Table Values of brng parameter for specific value. |
seed |
INTEGER, INTENT(IN) |
Initial condition of the stream. In the case of a quasi-random number generator seed parameter is used to set the dimension. If the dimension is greater than the dimension that brng can support or is less than 1, then the dimension is assumed to be equal to 1. |

For a basic generator with number brng, this function creates a new stream and initializes it with a 32-bit seed. The seed is an initial value used to select a particular sequence generated by the basic generator brng. The function is also applicable for generators with multiple initial conditions. Use this function to create and initialize a new stream with a 32-bit seed only. If you need to provide multiple initial conditions such as several 32-bit or wider seeds, use the function vslNewStreamEx. See VS Notes for a more detailed description of stream initialization for different basic generators.
This function is not applicable for abstract basic random number generators. Please use vsliNewAbstractStream, vslsNewAbstractStream or vsldNewAbstractStream to utilize integer, single-precision or double-precision external random data respectively.
