The XorShift128Generator type exposes the following members.

Constructors
 NameDescription
Public methodXorShift128Generator Initializes a new instance of the XorShift128Generator class, using a time-dependent default seed value.
Public methodXorShift128Generator(Int32) Initializes a new instance of the XorShift128Generator class, using the specified seed value.
Public methodXorShift128Generator(UInt32) Initializes a new instance of the XorShift128Generator class, using the specified seed value.

Properties
 NameDescription
Public propertyCanReset Gets a value indicating whether the XorShift128Generator can be reset, so that it produces the same pseudo-random number sequence again.
(Overrides GeneratorCanReset)
Public propertyMaximum Gets the maximum number that a call to Next can return.
(Inherited from Generator)

Methods
 NameDescription
Public methodEqualsDetermines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object)
Protected methodFinalizeAllows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object)
Public methodGetHashCodeServes as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object)
Public methodGetTypeGets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object)
Protected methodMemberwiseCloneCreates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object)
Public methodNext Returns a nonnegative random number less than MaxValue.
(Overrides GeneratorNext)
Public methodNext(Int32) Returns a nonnegative random number less than the specified maximum.
(Overrides GeneratorNext(Int32))

(Overrides GeneratorNext(Int32, Int32))
Public methodNextBoolean Returns a random Boolean value.
(Overrides GeneratorNextBoolean)
Public methodNextBytes Fills the elements of a specified array of bytes with random numbers.
(Overrides GeneratorNextBytes(Byte))
Public methodNextDouble Returns a nonnegative floating point random number less than 1.0.
(Overrides GeneratorNextDouble)

Remarks
The XorShift128Generator type bases upon the implementation presented in the CP article "A fast equivalent for System.Random" and the theoretical background on xorshift random number generators published by George Marsaglia in this paper "Xorshift RNGs".
