Generate next pseudorandom number.

This method is the core generation algorithm. It is used by all the public generation methods for the various primitive types nextBoolean(), nextBytes(byte[]), nextDouble(), nextFloat(), nextGaussian(), nextInt(), next(int) and nextLong().

Params:
  • bits – number of random bits to produce
Returns:random bits generated

This default implementation is copied from Apache Harmony java.util.Random (r929253).

Implementation notes:

  • If n is a power of 2, this method returns (int) ((n * (long) next(31)) >> 31).
  • If n is not a power of 2, what is returned is next(31) % n with next(31) values rejected (i.e. regenerated) until a value that is larger than the remainder of Integer.MAX_VALUE / n is generated. Rejection of this initial segment is necessary to ensure a uniform distribution.
