RcppZiggurat: 'Rcpp' Integration of Different "Ziggurat" Normal RNG
Implementations
The Ziggurat generator for normally distributed random
numbers, originally proposed by Marsaglia and Tsang (2000,
<doi:10.18637/jss.v005.i08>) has been improved upon a few times
starting with Leong et al (2005, <doi:10.18637/jss.v012.i07>).
This package provides an aggregation in order to compare different
implementations in order to provide a 'faster but good enough'
alternative for use with R and C++ code. See the 'zigg' package
for a lighter implementation for much easier use in other packages.
