{{alias}}( [options] )
Returns a readable stream for generating pseudorandom numbers having integer
values.
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.
The default underlying pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) *may* change in
the future. If exact reproducibility is required, either explicitly specify
a PRNG via the `name` option or use an underlying PRNG directly.
Parameters
----------
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.name: string (optional)
Name of a supported pseudorandom number generator (PRNG), which will
serve as the underlying source of pseudorandom numbers. The following
PRNGs are supported:
- mt19937: 32-bit Mersenne Twister.
- minstd: linear congruential PRNG based on Park and Miller.
- minstd-shuffle: linear congruential PRNG whose output is shuffled.
Default: 'mt19937'.
options.seed: any (optional)
Pseudorandom number generator seed. Valid seed values vary according to
the underlying PRNG.
options.state: any (optional)
Pseudorandom number generator state. Valid state values vary according
to the underling PRNG. 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
-------
stream: ReadableStream
Readable stream.
stream.PRNG: Function
Underlying pseudorandom number generator.
stream.seed: any
Pseudorandom number generator seed.
stream.seedLength: integer
Length of generator seed.
stream.state: any
Generator state.
stream.stateLength: integer
Length of generator state.
stream.byteLength: integer
Size (in bytes) of generator state.
Examples
--------
> function fcn( chunk ) { console.log( chunk.toString() ); };
> var opts = { 'iter': 10 };
> var s = {{alias}}( opts );
> var o = {{alias:@stdlib/streams/node/inspect-sink}}( fcn );
> s.pipe( o );
