Summary
This package contains code for generating high quality random numbers that follow either a uniform or normal distribution. The generated numbers are suitable for use in statistical applications. The uniform PRNG uses Marsaglia's MWC256 (also known as MWC8222) multiply-with-carry generator, which has a period of 2^8222 and fares well in tests of randomness. It is also extremely fast, between 2 and 3 times faster than the Mersenne Twister. Compared to the mersenne-random package, this package has a more convenient API, is faster, and supports more statistical distributions.

*/*: Inline mirror://hackage and update URIs
This change inlines mirror://hackage in all ebuilds, and updates URIs to the modern form (old URIs redirect to that). The change has been made using the following command: find -name '*.ebuild' -exec sed -r -i \ -e 's@mirror://hackage/@https://hackage.haskell.org/@g' \ -e 's@https://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/@https://hackage.haskell.org/package/\1-\2/@g' \ -e '/hackage\.haskell\.org/s@\$\{PN}-\$\{PV}@${P}@g' \ -e '/hackage\.haskell\.org/s@\$\{MY_PN}-\$\{PV}@${MY_P}@g' \ -e '/hackage\.haskell\.org/s@\$\{PN}-\$\{MY_PV}@${MY_P}@g' \ {} + Signed-off-by: Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> - Robin H.

proj/gentoo: Initial commit
This commit represents a new era for Gentoo: Storing the gentoo-x86 tree in Git, as converted from CVS. This commit is the start of the NEW history. Any historical data is intended to be grafted onto this point. Creation process: 1. Take final CVS checkout snapshot 2. Remove ALL ChangeLog* files 3. Transform all Manifests to thin 4. Remove empty Manifests 5. Convert all stale $Header$/$Id$ CVS keywords to non-expanded Git $Id$ 5.1. Do not touch files with -kb/-ko keyword flags. Signed-off-by: Robin H.
