NAME
SRC/slarnv.f

SYNOPSIS

  Functions/Subroutines
subroutine slarnv (idist, iseed, n, x)
SLARNV returns a vector of random numbers from a uniform or normal distribution.

Function/Subroutine Documentation

  subroutine slarnv (integer idist, integer, dimension( 4 ) iseed, integer n, real, dimension( * ) x)

SLARNV returns a vector of random numbers from a uniform or normal distribution.

Purpose:

    !>
    !> SLARNV returns a vector of n random real numbers from a uniform or
    !> normal distribution.
    !>

Parameters
    IDIST

    !>          IDIST is INTEGER
    !>          Specifies the distribution of the random numbers:
    !>          = 1:  uniform (0,1)
    !>          = 2:  uniform (-1,1)
    !>          = 3:  normal (0,1)
    !>

    ISEED

    !>          ISEED is 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.
    !>          On exit, the seed is updated.
    !>

    N

    !>          N is INTEGER
    !>          The number of random numbers to be generated.
    !>

    X

    !>          X is REAL array, dimension (N)
    !>          The generated random numbers.

    !>  This routine calls the auxiliary routine SLARUV 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.
