API for probabilities.random-numbers

clojure-contrib is now deprecated
clojure-contrib is no longer being developed or maintained.
Rather than a single, monolithic, contributions library, Clojure now has
a set of separate libraries for each unit of functionality. The libraries
are in the Clojure GitHub organization at
https://github.com/clojure.
API documentation of the libraries can be found at
https://clojure.github.io.
If you're looking for a specific function or namespace from the old
clojure-contrib, see
"Where Did Clojure.Contrib Go".
Full namespace name:
clojure.contrib.probabilities.random-numbers
Overview
Random number streams
This library provides random number generators with a common
stream interface. They all produce pseudo-random numbers that are
uniformly distributed in the interval [0, 1), i.e. 0 is a
possible value but 1 isn't. For transformations to other
distributions, see clojure.contrib.probabilities.monte-carlo.
At the moment, the only generator provided is a rather simple
linear congruential generator.

rand-stream
var
This library, clojure-contrib, is deprecated. See here for more information.
A random number stream based on clojure.core/rand. Note that this
generator uses an internal mutable state. The state is thus not stored
in the stream object and cannot be restored.
