rstream.clone-methods: Methods for Function rstream.clone in Package `rstream'

Description

Make a copy (clone) of an "rstream" object in package rstream.

"rstream" objects cannot simply be copied by <-. The new variable does not hold a copy of an "rstream" object but just points to the old object which might not be the wanted result (similar to R environments). To get a copy of the whole "rstream" object the clone method must be used.

Usage

# S4 method for rstream
rstream.clone(stream)

Arguments

stream

an "rstream" object.

Methods

Methods available for all "rstream" subclasses: rstream.mrg32k3a, rstream.runif.

s <- new("rstream.mrg32k3a")

## make a copy (clone)
clone <- rstream.clone(s)
