// subtract_with_carry_engine::min and max
#include <iostream>
#include <chrono>
#include <random>

int main ()
{
  unsigned seed = std::chrono::system_clock::now().time_since_epoch().count();
  std::subtract_with_carry_engine<unsigned,24,10,24> generator (seed);

  std::cout << generator() << " is a random number between ";
  std::cout << generator.min() << " and " << generator.max();

  return 0;
}

Possible output:
4121487 is a random number between 0 and 16777215


Complexity

None (compile-time constant).
