explicit linear_congruential_engine( result_type value = default_seed );	(1)	(since C++11)
template< class Sseq > explicit linear_congruential_engine( Sseq& s );	(2)	(since C++11)
linear_congruential_engine( const linear_congruential_engine& );	(3)	(since C++11) (implicitly declared)

Constructs the pseudo-random number engine.

The overload (2) only participates in overload resolution if Sseq qualifies as a SeedSequence. In particular, it is excluded from the set of candidate functions if Sseq is convertible to result_type.

Parameters

value	-	seed value to use in the initialization of the internal state
s	-	seed sequence to use in the initialization of the internal state

seed	sets the current state of the engine (public member function)
