Summary : Override randoms with non-random behavior
|
Description :
This perhaps ridiculous-seeming module was created to test routines that manipulate random numbers by providing a known output from \'rand\'. Given a list of seeds with \'srand\', it will return each in turn. After seeded random numbers are exhausted, it will always return 0. Seed numbers must be of a form that meets the expected output from \'rand\' as called with no arguments -- i.e. they must be between 0 (inclusive) and 1 (exclusive). In order to facilitate generating and testing a nearly-one number, this module exports the function \'oneish\', which returns a number just fractionally less than one.
Depending on how this module is called with \'use\', it will export \'rand\' to a specified package (e.g. a class being tested) effectively overriding and intercepting calls in that package to the built-in \'rand\'. It can also override \'rand\' in the current package or even globally. In all of these cases, it also exports \'srand\' and \'oneish\' to the current package in order to control the output of \'rand\'. See the /USAGE manpage for details.
Alternatively, this module can be used to generate objects, with each object maintaining its own distinct seed array.
