--- T-Engine random number generator API
-- Uses the SIMD oriented Fast Mersenne Twister.

module "rng"
--	{"float", rng_float},
--- Select a random floating point number from a uniform distribution.
-- @param min The lower limit of the distribution.
-- @param max The upper limit of the distribution.
-- @return The randomly selected number.
function float (min, max)

--	{"__call", rng_call},
-- GOING TO LEAVE THIS ONE OUT
-- @param arg1 The upper limit if no arg2, otherwise the lower limit.
-- @param arg2 The upper limit, or nothing.
-- @return 
function __call (arg1, arg2)

--	{"range", rng_range},
--- Select a random integer from a uniform distribution.
-- @param min The lower limit of the distribution.
-- @param max The upper limit of the distribution.
-- @return The randomly selected integer.
function range (min, max)

--	{"avg", rng_avg},
--- The average of several repeated calls to the range function.
-- @param min The lower limit of the distribution.
-- @param max The upper limir of the distribution.
-- @param size The number of samples (default 2).
-- @return The average from size samples.
-- @see range
function avg (min, max, size)

--	{"dice", rng_dice},
--- The sum of a series of dice rolls.
-- @param rolls The number of rolls of dice to simulate. (3 in 3d6)
-- @param sides How many sides the dice has. (6 in 3d6)
-- @return The sum of the dice rolls.
function dice (rolls, sides)

--	{"seed", rng_seed},
--- Set the seed for the random number generator.
-- The RNG will be re-initialized after setting the seed.
-- @param new_seed The new seed, unless the number is negative in which case the clock time will be used.
function seed (new_seed)

--	{"chance", rng_chance},
--- Decide if a one in X chance occurs.
-- @param odds The X in "1 in X".  As the X increases, the odds of success decrease accordingly, with a 100/X% chance of returning true.
-- @return A boolean representing success.
function chance (odds)

--	{"percent", rng_percent},
--- Decide if something should occur based on a percent chance.
-- @param success The percent chance (0-100) to return true.
-- @return A boolean representing success.
function percent (success)

--	{"normal", rng_normal},
--- Select an integer from a normal distribution.
-- @param mean The mean of the normal distribution
-- @param stdev The standard deviation of the normal distribution.
-- @return The selected integer.
-- @see normalFloat
function normal (mean, stdev)

--	{"normalFloat", rng_normal_float},
--- Select a floating point number from a normal distribution.
-- Uses the Box-Muller transform.
-- @param mean The mean of the normal distribution
-- @param stdev The standard deviation of the normal distribution.
-- @return The selected floating point number.
-- @see normal
function normalFloat (mean, stdev)
