Hello. I don't know if that is the reason for the strange behaviour, but On 04/11/2011 03:03 AM, Mitar wrote:
I have made this function to generate a random graph for Data.Graph.Inductive library:
generateGraph :: Int -> IO (Gr String Double) generateGraph graphSize = do when (graphSize< 1) $ throwIO $ AssertionFailed $ "Graph size out of bounds " ++ show graphSize let ns = map (\n -> (n, show n)) [1..graphSize] es<- fmap concat $ forM [1..graphSize] $ \node -> do nedges<- randomRIO (0, graphSize) others<- fmap (filter (node /=) . nub) $ forM [1..nedges] $ \_ -> randomRIO (1, graphSize) gen<- getStdGen let weights = randomRs (1, 10) gen
^ this use of randomRs looks wrong.
return $ zip3 (repeat node) others weights return $ mkGraph ns es
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/random/latest/doc/html/System-Ra... tells me: randomRs :: RandomGen g => (a, a) -> g -> [a] Plural variant of randomR, producing an infinite list of random values instead of returning a new generator. So when using randomRs, the state of the global random number generator is not updated, but it is used again in the next iteration of the toplevel forM [1..graphSize] loop. Try:
weights <- replicateM (length others) $ randomRIO (1, 10)
instead. -- Steffen
But I noticed that graph has sometimes same weights on different edges. This is very unlikely to happen so probably I have some error using random generators. Could somebody tell me where?
