infoDoRNG

doRNG

<code>infoDoRNG</code> returns information about the doRNG backend, e.g., version,
number of workers.
It is not meant to be called by the user.

internal

Provides functions to perform
reproducible parallel foreach loops, using independent
random streams as generated by L'Ecuyer's combined
multiple-recursive generator [L'Ecuyer (1999), <DOI:10.1287/opre.47.1.159>].
It enables to easily convert standard '%dopar%' loops into
fully reproducible loops, independently of the number
of workers, the task scheduling strategy, or the chosen
parallel environment and associated foreach backend.
