  # NAME
  
  Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom - An interface to libgsl, the Gnu Scientific Library - Quasi-Random Sequences.
  
  # SYNOPSIS
  
  ```
  use Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom;
  use Math::Libgsl::Constants;
  
  my Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom $q .= new: :type(SOBOL), :2dimensions;
  $q.get».say for ^10;
  
  ```
  
  # DESCRIPTION
  
  Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom is an interface to the Quasi-Random Sequences of libgsl, the Gnu Scientific Library.
  
  ### new(Int :$type, Int :$dimensions)
  
  The constructor allows two parameters, the quasi-random sequence generator type and the dimensions. One can find an enum listing all the generator types in the Math::Libgsl::Constants module.
  
  ### init()
  
  This method re-inits the sequence.
  
  ### get(--> List)
  
  Returns the next item in the sequence as a List of Nums.
  
  ### name(--> Str)
  
  This method returns the name of the current quasi-random sequence.
  
  ### copy(Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom $src)
  
  This method copies the source generator **$src** into the current one and returns the current object, so it can be concatenated. The generator state is also copied, so the source and destination generators deliver the same values.
  
  ### clone(--> Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom)
  
  This method clones the current object and returns a new object. The generator state is also cloned, so the source and destination generators deliver the same values.
  
  ```
  my $q = Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom.new;
  my $clone = $q.clone;
  
  ```
  
  # C Library Documentation
  
  For more details on libgsl see <https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/>. The excellent C Library manual is available here <https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/doc/html/index.html>, or here <https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/doc/latex/gsl-ref.pdf> in PDF format.
  
  # Prerequisites
  
  This module requires the libgsl library to be installed. Please follow the instructions below based on your platform:
  
  ## Debian Linux and Ubuntu 20.04+
  
  ```
  sudo apt install libgsl23 libgsl-dev libgslcblas0
  
  ```
  
  That command will install libgslcblas0 as well, since it's used by the GSL.
  
  ## Ubuntu 18.04
  
  libgsl23 and libgslcblas0 have a missing symbol on Ubuntu 18.04. I solved the issue installing the Debian Buster version of those three libraries:
  
  * <http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gsl/libgslcblas0_2.5+dfsg-6_amd64.deb>
  * <http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gsl/libgsl23_2.5+dfsg-6_amd64.deb>
  * <http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gsl/libgsl-dev_2.5+dfsg-6_amd64.deb>
  
  # Installation
  
  To install it using zef (a module management tool):
  
  ```
  $ zef install Math::Libgsl::QuasiRandom
  
  ```
