## What's pseudorandom number generation?
|
||||
1. Numbers appear to be randomly generated but in reality they are not *CORRECT*
|
||||
2. Generating random numbers according to the physical laws
|
||||
3. Generating pseudo even and odd numbers
|
||||
|
||||
> **1:** Computers are deterministic machines. They can't generate truly random numbers (unlike actual physical processes).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## What's a seed number?
|
||||
1. Exchanging of random numbers between two computers
|
||||
2. It's used to getting a random number between 0 and the seed number
|
||||
3. It's used initialize a pseduorandom number generator *CORRECT*
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Which package is used to generate pseudorandom numbers in Go?
|
||||
1. pseudorand
|
||||
2. rand *CORRECT*
|
||||
3. random
|
||||
4. randomizer
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## What does [0, 5) mean?
|
||||
1. A range of numbers between 0 and 5 (excluding 5) *CORRECT*
|
||||
2. A range of numbers between 0 and 5 (including 5)
|
||||
3. Just 0 and 5
|
||||
4. Just 0 and 4
|
||||
|
||||
> **1:** Right. The square-brace means: "inclusion". The parenthesis means: "exclusion". So, [0, 5] means: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. It's called the "mathematical interval notation".
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Why this function call would not work?
|
||||
```go
|
||||
rand.Intn(0)
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. First you should seed it
|
||||
2. It expects two arguments
|
||||
3. Intn works within a range of [0, 0). So, it doesn't make sense to include 0 and not include 0 at the same time. *CORRECT*
|
||||
|
||||
> **1:** That's not the cause of this error. You don't always have to seed it.
|
||||
> **2:** No, it does not.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## What does this program print?
|
||||
Note that, each seed number below returns pseudorandom numbers as these:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Seed: 0
|
||||
3 3 6 8 4 1 9 3 6 6
|
||||
|
||||
Seed: 1
|
||||
1 1 9 3 2 4 7 6 6 6
|
||||
|
||||
Seed: 2
|
||||
10 1 2 2 0 6 4 1 0 5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Here's the program:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
package main
|
||||
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"fmt"
|
||||
"math/rand"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
func main() {
|
||||
for i := 0; i < 3; i++ {
|
||||
rand.Seed(int64(i))
|
||||
fmt.Print(rand.Intn(11), " ")
|
||||
fmt.Print(rand.Intn(11), " ")
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. 3 1 10 3 1 1
|
||||
2. 3 6 1 6 10 5
|
||||
3. 1 10 1 1 3 3
|
||||
4. 3 3 1 1 10 1 *CORRECT*
|
||||
|
||||
> **4:** The numbers are determined depending on the seed number. So, this loop, seeds the pseudorandom generator with 0, 1, and 2 respectively.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> And, after each seed, it calls Intn twice to generate two random numbers.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> So, if you look at the result, 3 3 is the first two numbers of Seed: 0. 1 1 for Seed: 1. And, 10 1 for Seed: 2.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## What you should do if you want the pseudorandom generator to produce random numbers each time you run your program?
|
||||
1. You need to seed it like this: rand.Seed(rand.Random)
|
||||
2. You need to seed it like this: rand.Seed(time.Now().UnixNano()) *CORRECT*
|
||||
3. You need to seed it like this: rand.Seed(time.Now())
