std::uniform_real_distribution reset() method in C++ with Examples

Last Updated : 17 Jun, 2019

The reset() method of uniform_real_distribution class in C++ is used to reset this uniform_real_distribution. Syntax:

void reset();

Parameters: This method do not accepts any parameters. Return Value: This method do not return anything. Example:

CPP

// C++ code to demonstrate
// the working of reset() function

#include <iostream>

// for uniform_real_distribution function
#include <random>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    double a = 10, b = 20.5;

    default_random_engine generator;

    // Initializing of uniform_real_distribution class
    uniform_real_distribution<double> distribution(a, b);

    cout << "Next value in uniform_int_distribution: "
         << distribution(generator) << endl;
    cout << "Next value in uniform_int_distribution: "
         << distribution(generator) << endl;
    cout << "Next value in uniform_int_distribution: "
         << distribution(generator) << endl;

    // Using reset()
    distribution.reset();
    cout << endl
         << "uniform_int_distribution has been reset."
         << endl
         << endl;

    // Now the next value won't be in the previous progression
    // and will be another progression
    cout << "Now next value in uniform_int_distribution: "
         << distribution(generator) << endl;

    return 0;
}

Output:

Next value in uniform_int_distribution: 11.3811
Next value in uniform_int_distribution: 14.8158
Next value in uniform_int_distribution: 12.2991

uniform_int_distribution has been reset.

Now next value in uniform_int_distribution: 17.1281
