Returns a vector of random numbers from a uniform or normal distribution.
call slarnv( idist, iseed, n, x )
call dlarnv( idist, iseed, n, x )
call clarnv( idist, iseed, n, x )
call zlarnv( idist, iseed, n, x )
The FORTRAN 77 interfaces are specified in the mkl_lapack.fi include file (to be used in Fortran programs) and in the mkl_lapack.h include file (to be used in C programs).
The routine ?larnv returns a vector of n random real/complex numbers from a uniform or normal distribution.
This routine calls the auxiliary routine ?laruv to generate random real numbers from a uniform (0,1) distribution, in batches of up to 128 using vectorisable code. The Box-Muller method is used to transform numbers from a uniform to a normal distribution.
INTEGER. Specifies the distribution of the random numbers: for slarnv and dlanrv:
= 1: uniform (0,1)
= 2: uniform (-1,1)
= 3: normal (0,1).
for clarnv and zlanrv:
= 1: real and imaginary parts each uniform (0,1)
= 2: real and imaginary parts each uniform (-1,1)
= 3: real and imaginary parts each normal (0,1)
= 4: uniformly distributed on the disc abs(z) < 1
= 5: uniformly distributed on the circle abs(z) = 1
INTEGER. Array, DIMENSION (4).
On entry, the seed of the random number generator; the array elements must be between 0 and 4095, and iseed(4) must be odd.
INTEGER. The number of random numbers to be generated.
