Random Number Generators Device Routines
========================================

The main purpose of Device routines is to make them callable from your DPC++ kernels; however, there are no limitations to be called from the Host. For example:


.. code-block::

   sycl::queue queue;

   queue.submit([&](sycl::handler& cgh) {
     cgh.parallel_for(range,[=](…) {
        mkl::rng::device::routine(...); // calling routine from user’s kernel code
     });
   });

   mkl::rng::device::routine(...); // calling routine from host
