Name:

    SetStatus_v - modify the properties of a random deviate generator

Synopsis:

      rdvtype dict  SetStatus ->	-

Examples:

      SLI ] rngdict /MT19937 get 123456789 CreateRNG /rng Set
      SLI ] rng rdevdict /binomial get CreateRDV /bino Set
      SLI ] bino << /p 0.2 /n 10 >> SetStatus
      SLI ] bino 10 RandomArray ==
      [3 0 5 2 0 2 2 0 2 1]
      SLI ] bino << /p 0.8  >> SetStatus
      SLI ] bino 10 RandomArray ==
      [8 8 8 8 10 7 7 9 6 8]

Description:

      Sets the parameters of the given random deviate generator to the values
      given in the status dictionary.  The parameters depend on the particular
      generator.

      The random deviate can be a deviate implemented in C++ represented by
      rdvtype or a SLI level deviate represented by a dictionary. For the
      latter case SetStatus is overloaded with function SetStatus_d.
