linear_congruential_engine() : linear_congruential_engine(default_seed) {}
(1) (since C++11)
explicit linear_congruential_engine( result_type value );
(2) (since C++11)
template< class Sseq > 
explicit linear_congruential_engine( Sseq& s );
(3) (since C++11)
linear_congruential_engine( const linear_congruential_engine& );
(4) (since C++11)
(implicitly declared)

Constructs the pseudo-random number engine.

1) Default constructor. Seeds the engine with default_seed.

The overload (3) only participates in overload resolution if Sseq qualifies as a SeedSequence. In particular, it is excluded from the set of candidate functions if Sseq is convertible to result_type.

Parameters

value - seed value to use in the initialization of the internal state
s - seed sequence to use in the initialization of the internal state
