+              Apache Commons RNG 1.4 RELEASE NOTES
+
+The Apache Commons RNG team is pleased to announce the release of Apache 
Commons RNG 1.4
+
+The Apache Commons RNG project provides pure-Java implementation
+of pseudo-random generators.
+
+This is a minor release of Apache Commons RNG, containing a
+few new features and performance improvements.
+
+Apache Commons RNG 1.4 contains the following library modules:
+ commons-rng-client-api (requires Java 8)
+ commons-rng-core (requires Java 8)
+ commons-rng-simple (requires Java 8)
+ commons-rng-sampling (requires Java 8)
+
+The code in module 'commons-rng-core' should not be accessed
+directly by applications as a future release might make use of
+the JPMS modularization feature available in Java 11+.
+
+Additional code is provided in the following modules:
+ commons-rng-examples-quadrature (requires Java 8)
+ commons-rng-examples-jmh (requires Java 8)
+ commons-rng-examples-sampling (requires Java 8)
+ commons-rng-examples-stress (requires Java 8)
+ commons-rng-examples-jpms (requires Java 11)
+
+It is however not part of the official API and no compatibility
+should be expected in subsequent releases.
+
+It must be noted that, due to the nature of random number generation, some 
unit tests
+are bound to fail with some probability. The 'maven-surefire-plugin' is 
configured
+to re-run tests that fail, and pass the build if they succeed within the 
allotted
+number of reruns (the test will be marked as 'flaky' in the report).
+
+Changes in this version include:
+
+New features:
+o RNG-156: New "DirichletSampler" class to sample from a Dirichlet 
distribution.
+o RNG-137: New "StableSampler" class to sample from a stable distribution.
+o RNG-138: New "CompositeSamplers" class to sample from a weighted combination 
of samplers.
+o RNG-140: New "LongSampler" interface for sampling a long. New 
"UniformLongSampler" to sample
+           from a range.
+o RNG-151: New "ZigguratSampler" implementation of the modified "Ziggurat" 
algorithm for
+           Gaussian and exponential sampling.
+o RNG-147: New "LevySampler" to sample from a Levy distribution.
+o RNG-145: "ContinuousUniformSampler": Add optional support for an open 
interval: (lower, upper).
+o RNG-143: "RandomSource": Add an instance create method. Deprecate the static 
create method.
+o RNG-136: New "ObjectSampler<T>" and "SharedStateObjectSampler<T>" interfaces.
+           These interfaces are implemented by samplers returning an object.
+           This changes the functional compatibility of existing samplers that 
implement
+           SharedStatedSampler<R>: CollectionSampler<T>; CombinationSampler;
+           DiscreteProbabilityCollectionSampler<T>; PermutationSampler; and 
UnitSphereSampler.
+           The method signature of the SharedStateSampler<R> interface remains
+           'public R withUniformRandomProvider(UniformRandomProvider)'. The 
result can still be
+           assigned to an instance of the same class R; it can no longer be 
assigned to an instance
+           of SharedStatedSampler<R>. It can now be assigned to 
SharedStateObjectSampler<T>
+           which can be used to generate samples of type <T>.
+           Code that assigned to SharedStatedSampler<R> should be updated.
+o RNG-135: New "TetrahedronSampler" to sample uniformly from a tetrahedron.
+o RNG-134: New "BoxSampler" to sample uniformly from a box (or hyperrectangle).
+o RNG-133: New "LineSampler" to sample uniformly on a line segment.
+o RNG-131: New "TriangleSampler" to sample uniformly from a triangle.
+o RNG-132: New "o.a.c.rng.sampling.shape" package for sampling coordinates 
from shapes.
+o RNG-128: New "UnitBallSampler" to generate coordinates uniformly within an 
n-unit ball.
+o RNG-126: "PoissonSamplerCache": Method to return a 
SharedStateDiscreteSampler.
+o RNG-124: Add fixed increment versions of the PCG generators.
+
+Fixed Bugs:
+o RNG-159: "ZigguratSampler.NormalizedGaussian": Corrected biased sampling 
within convex regions
+           at the edge of the ziggurat.
+o RNG-146: "GaussianSampler": Prevent infinite mean and standard deviation.
+o RNG-144: "AhrensDieterExponentialSampler": Avoid possible infinite loop 
during sampling if the
+           underlying UniformRandomProvider creates a zero for the uniform 
deviate.
+o RNG-130: "UnitSphereSampler": Fix 1 dimension sampling to only return 
vectors containing 1 or -1.
+
+Changes:
+o RNG-163: Update test suite to JUnit 5.
+o          Simplify assertions with simpler equivalent. Thanks to Arturo 
Bernal.
+o RNG-162: Update the minimum Java version to 1.8.
+o RNG-160: "ZigguratSampler.NormalizedGaussian": Performance improvement by 
extracting ziggurat
+           edge sampling to a separate method.
+o RNG-157: "UnitSphereSampler": Deprecate public constructor. Use the factory 
constructor to create
+           an optimal sampler.
+o RNG-155: "ZigguratNormalizedGaussianSampler": Update to a table size of 256.
+o RNG-152: Update samplers to use ZigguratSampler.NormalizedGaussian for 
Gaussian deviates.
+o RNG-154: Update Gaussian samplers to avoid infinity in the tails of the 
distribution. Applies
+           to: ZigguratNormalisedGaussianSampler; 
BoxMullerNormalizedGaussianSampler; and
+           BoxMullerGaussianSampler.
+o RNG-153: "UnitBallSampler": Update to use the ZigguratSampler for an 
exponential deviate for
+           ball point picking.
+o RNG-150: Update "LargeMeanPoissonSampler" and "GeometricSampler" to use the 
ZigguratSampler for
+           exponential deviates.
+o RNG-129: "UnitSphereSampler": Improve performance with specialisations for 
low order dimensions.
+           Added a factory constructor to create the sampler.
