# mt2203¶

The engine is based on a set of 6024 Mersenne Twister pseudorandom number generators with period 22203.

MT2203 generators are intended for use in large scale Monte Carlo simulations performed on multi-processor computer systems [Matsumoto2000].

## Batch Processing¶

Mersenne Twister engine needs the initial condition (seed) for state initialization. The seed can be either an integer scalar or a vector of $$p$$ integer elements, the inputs to the respective engine constructors.

Algorithm Parameters

MT2203 engine has the following parameters:

Parameter

Default Value

Description

algorithmFPType

float

The floating-point type that the algorithm uses for intermediate computations. Can be float or double.

method

defaultDense

Performance-oriented computation method; the only method supported by the algorithm.

seed

• $$777$$ for a scalar seed

• NA for a vector seed

Initial condition for state initialization, scalar or vector:

• Scalar, value of size_t type

• Vector, pointer to HomogenNumericTable of size $$1 \times p$$
