Re: [Boost-users] [Math/Statistical Distributions+Random] Random number generation

Maybe automate the stated requirement? (not tested): template<typename D> struct math_to_random{}; template struct math_to_random >{ typedef exponential_distribution<T> type; }; etc. template variate_generator< G&, math_to_random >::type

make_variate_generator( G& rng, const math::exponential_distribution& dist0 ){ typedef typename math_to_random >::type rd_t; typename variate_generator< G&, rd_t

vg_t;

rd_t rd(dist0.lambda()); return vg_t(rng,dist) } etc. Usage: ... gen; ... vec; math::exponential_distribution dist(lambda); std::generate_n( back_inserter(vec), n, make_variate_generator(rng,dist) )
