Implementations
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
The implementation has been factored into three parts.
|
||||
One part implements the core generator, one part provides
|
||||
the more generic functionality as specified in the SRFI,
|
||||
and one part combines the parts and provides the interface
|
||||
as specified in the SRFI.
|
||||
|
||||
a) A Scheme-only implementation for Scheme 48 0.57:
|
||||
srfi-27-a.scm
|
||||
mrg32k3a-a.scm
|
||||
mrg32k3a.scm
|
||||
|
||||
This implementation uses 54-bit Scheme integers for all
|
||||
arithmetics of the generator. The result are Scheme integers
|
||||
and inexact Scheme numbers when floating point values are
|
||||
requested.
|
||||
|
||||
The implementation is slow but tries to stay away from
|
||||
unportable features as much as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
b) An implementation in Scheme 48 0.57 and ANSI-C:
|
||||
srfi-27-b.scm
|
||||
mrg32k3a-b.scm
|
||||
mrg32k3a.scm
|
||||
|
||||
This is a more realistic implementation using C's (double)
|
||||
datatype for the core generator and 54-bit Scheme integers
|
||||
for the more infrequent operations on the state like the
|
||||
random-source-pseudo-randomize! operation.
|
||||
|
||||
This implementation is meant as an example for a realistic
|
||||
native code implementation of the SRFI. Performance is good.
|
||||
|
||||
c) A Scheme-only implementation for Gambit 3.0:
|
||||
srfi-27-c.scm
|
||||
mrg32k3a-c.scm
|
||||
mrg32k3a.scm
|
||||
|
||||
This implementation uses Gambit's 64-bit flonums. It is
|
||||
entirely written in Scheme but uses a few special features
|
||||
of the Gambit system to tell the compiler.
|
||||
|
||||
This implementation is meant as an example for a realistic
|
||||
Scheme implementation using flonums in Scheme and no C-code.
|
||||
Performance is good when the code is used in compiled form;
|
||||
the implementation has been optimized by Brad Lucier. This
|
||||
has resulted in a subtantial performance gain.
