Nearly a year ago, I wrote a post suggesting some good alternatives to PCG. As part of that post, I included links to C++ implementations of those PRNGs, following C++-11 conventions (although omitting rarely-used features such as state I/O). Since that post, I've written my own C++ implementations of a few more generation schemes. Links and brief descriptions below.

The vast majority of my posts about random number generation have focused on looking at the properties of different generation schemes. But, perhaps surprisingly, the performance of your randomized a| PCG, A Better Random Number Generator
