PGI Fortran 中的随机数生成器不是那么随机

Question

以下代码仅生成一个简单的随机数三元组：

program testrand

integer, parameter :: nz = 160, nf = 160, nlt = 90

real :: tmpidx(3)
integer :: idxarr(3), idx1, idx2, idx3, seed_size, ticks
integer, allocatable :: seed(:)

call random_seed(size=seed_size)
allocate(seed(seed_size))

call system_clock(count=ticks)
seed = ticks+37*(/(i-1, i=1,seed_size)/)
call random_seed(put=seed)

deallocate(seed)

call random_number(tmpidx)
idxarr = tmpidx * (/nz, nf, nlt/)
idx1 = max(1,idxarr(1))
idx2 = max(1,idxarr(2))
idx3 = max(1,idxarr(3))
print *,idx1, idx2, idx3

end program

我用 gfortran 和运行编译了几次，我得到：

> gfortran testrand.f90
> ./a.out
          74          98          86
> ./a.out
         113           3          10
> ./a.out
          44         104          27

看起来很随意。现在我用 PGI Fortran 和运行编译了几次：

> pgf90 testrand.f90
> ./a.out
            1            1            1
> ./a.out
            1            1            1
> ./a.out
            1            1            1

当然，没有办法完全确定，但我怀疑这不是随机的。 :) 有人知道这里发生了什么吗？有人知道用 PGI Fortran 获取随机数的正确方法吗？

不知何故，PGI 没有像 GNU 编译器那样实现 system_clock。不知道为什么，最近和你一样做类似的事情发现了。

要看我在说什么，只需在调用system_clock后打印ticks。使用 PGI 时，您可能总是得到 0，而使用 GNU 编译器时，得到的数字可能会不断变化。要解决您的问题，您可以修改以下代码。它是代码的略微修改版本，您可以在 GNU fortran web site

    real :: tmpidx(3)
    integer :: idxarr(3), idx1, idx2, idx3, seed_size, ticks
    integer, allocatable :: seed(:)

    call random_seed(size=seed_size)
    allocate(seed(seed_size))

    ! call system_clock(count=ticks)
    ! seed = ticks+37*(/(i-1, i=1,seed_size)/)
    ! call random_seed(put=seed)
    ! 
    ! deallocate(seed)

    call init_random_seed()
