nag_rand_logical (g05tbc)

1  Purpose

2  Specification

3  Description

4  References

5  Arguments

1:     n – IntegerInput

On entry: $n$, the number of pseudorandom logical values to be generated.

Constraint: $\mathbf{n}\ge 0$.

2:     p – doubleInput

On entry: must contain the probability of nag_rand_logical (g05tbc) returning Nag_TRUE.

Constraint: $0.0\le \mathbf{p}\le 1.0$.

3:     state[$\mathit{dim}$] – IntegerCommunication Array

Note: the dimension, $\mathit{dim}$, of this array is dictated by the requirements of associated functions that must have been previously called. This array MUST be the same array passed as argument state in the previous call to nag_rand_init_repeatable (g05kfc) or nag_rand_init_nonrepeatable (g05kgc).

On entry: contains information on the selected base generator and its current state.

On exit: contains updated information on the state of the generator.

4:     x[n] – Nag_BooleanOutput

On exit: the $n$ logical values.

5:     fail – NagError *Input/Output

The NAG error argument (see Section 3.6 in the Essential Introduction).

6  Error Indicators and Warnings

NE_ALLOC_FAIL

Dynamic memory allocation failed.

NE_BAD_PARAM

On entry, argument $⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$ had an illegal value.

NE_INT

On entry, $\mathbf{n}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: $\mathbf{n}\ge 0$.

NE_INTERNAL_ERROR

An internal error has occurred in this function. Check the function call and any array sizes. If the call is correct then please contact NAG for assistance.

NE_INVALID_STATE

On entry, state vector has been corrupted or not initialized.

NE_REAL

On entry, $\mathbf{p}=⟨\mathit{\text{value}}⟩$.
Constraint: $0.0\le \mathbf{p}\le 1.0$.
