public static member function
<random>
static constexpr result_type max();
Maximum value
Returns the maximum value potentially returned by member operator(), which for subtract_with_carry_engine is 2w-1 (where w is the word size specified as the second class template parameter).
Return value
2word_size-1
result_type is a member type, defined as an alias of the first class template parameter (UIntType).
