MersenneTwister generator

I am trying to generate Mersenne Twister generator but I always have this massage "MersenneTwister cannot be resolved to a type" This is my code

public class RandomVariable
{
  /** Initialize Mersenne Twister generator. */

  private static MersenneTwister rnd  = new MersenneTwister();

  /** Generate a uniformly distributed random number between 0 and 1.
   *
   *  @return      A double between 0 and 1.
   *
   *  </p>
   */

  public static double rand()
  {
    return rnd.nextDouble();
  }
}
Solution

  • You need to have the Apache Commons Math library in your Java projects classpath and add the following import line in your source code:

    import org.apache.commons.math3.random.MersenneTwister;
