gmp_random - Random number
Manual
gmp_random(
[int$limiter = 20] ): GMP
Generate a random number. The number will be between 0 and (2 ** n) - 1, where n is the number of bits per limb multiplied by limiter. If limiter is negative, negative numbers are generated.
A limb is an internal GMP mechanism. The number of bits in a limb is not static, and can vary from system to system. Generally, the number of bits in a limb is either 32 or 64, but this is not guaranteed.
Parameters
- limiter
-
The limiter.
A GMP object, an int or a numeric string.
Return Values
A random GMP number.
