Re: [boost] binomial distribution - not documented?

Thanks - but I'm looking for a random generator. I don't see this in the math_toolkit - am I missing something?

I do realize that inverse cumulative could be used, which I think math_toolkit provides, but that's not always a good choice.

Correct, in general the random number library is a much better bet for, um, random numbers.

BTW, the binomial_distribution provided by boost::random is pretty crude.

Unfortunately the library as a whole has a number of outstanding issues that need fixing... there was talk of a replacement at one point (for TR2) but I don't know how that's progressing. John.
