Detailed Description

The Random Number Generator (RNG) that returns a predetermined sequence.

Defines a random variable that has a specified, predetermined sequence. This would be useful when trying to force the RNG to return a known sequence, perhaps to compare ns-3 to some other simulator

Creates a generator that returns successive elements from the value array on successive calls to GetValue(). Note that the values in the array are copied and stored by the generator (deep-copy). Also note that the sequence repeats if more values are requested than are present in the array.

Example

Here is an example of how to use this class:

Ptr<DeterministicRandomVariable> s = CreateObject<DeterministicRandomVariable> ();
std::vector array{ 4, 4, 7, 7, 10, 10};
s->SetValueArray (array);
double value = x->GetValue ();
ns3::Ptr
Smart pointer class similar to boost::intrusive_ptr.
Definition: ptr.h:77

This will return values in the repeating sequence

\[ x \in 4, 4, 7, 7, 10, 10, 4, \dots \]

Antithetic Values.

This RNG ignores the antithetic setting.
