Description

Details

Depending on whether RcppArmadillo was compiled for the C++98 standard (currently the default) or for C++11 (optional), two different RNGs may be used. This function resets either. For C++98, the R programming language's RNG is used. For C++11, the RNG included in the <random> library is used only when #define ARMA_USE_CXX11_RNG is placed before #include <RcppArmadillo.h>. Otherwise, the R programming language's RNG will be used.
