Your generators vs. Boost::Random
Author: Anders Vildsvinsson Date: 2013-09-02 11:47
What are the advantages your collection of RNGs offer compared to Boost::Random (http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/doc/html/boost_random.html) ? In other words: when shall I rely on Boost (being the "quasi-standard" when coding in C++), and when shall I use your library?

Thanks, Anders

Both are excellent for most purposes. Each has some features that the other doesn't have. Use whatever you think is most convenient.
