Syntax

public abstract class Generator

The Generator type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	Generator	Initializes a new instance of the Generator class

Properties

	Name	Description
	CanReset	Gets a value indicating whether the random number generator can be reset, so that it produces the same random number sequence again.
	Maximum	Gets the maximum number that a call to Next can return.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object)
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
	Next	Returns a nonnegative random number less than MaxValue.
	Next(Int32)	Returns a nonnegative random number less than the specified maximum.
	Next(Int32, Int32)	Returns a random number within the specified range.
	NextBoolean	Returns a random Boolean value.
	NextBytes	Fills the elements of a specified array of bytes with random numbers.
	NextDouble	Returns a nonnegative floating point random number less than 1.0.
	NextDouble(Double)	Returns a nonnegative floating point random number less than the specified maximum.
	NextDouble(Double, Double)	Returns a floating point random number within the specified range.
	NextPositiveDouble	Returns a floating point random number in the range (0,1), i.e. greater than 0.0 and less than 1.0.
	Reset	Resets the random number generator, so that it produces the same random number sequence again.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
