open_binary_resource_file()

std::ifstream open_binary_resource_file

(

std::string const &

filename

)

Opens a file in the Resources/ directory for input in binary mode.

Throws exceptions::File_error if the file cannot be opened.

Variable Documentation

unbounded

constexpr unbounded_type const unbounded { }

constexpr

A tag value for passing to the constructor Random_source::Random_source(unbounded_type) in order to delay specifying the range of numbers at construction time.

Instead, the range of numbers must be passed to Random_source::operator()(result_type, result_type) or Random_source::next_between(result_type, result_type) for each number you generate.

For an example, see Random_source::Random_source(unbounded_type).
