/* lrand(3)
|
|
*
|
|
* Author: Terrence W. Holm Nov. 1988
|
|
*
|
|
*
|
|
* A prime modulus multiplicative linear congruential
|
|
* generator (PMMLCG), or "Lehmer generator".
|
|
* Implementation directly derived from the article:
|
|
*
|
|
* S. K. Park and K. W. Miller
|
|
* Random Number Generators: Good Ones are Hard to Find
|
|
* CACM vol 31, #10. Oct. 1988. pp 1192-1201.
|
|
*
|
|
*
|
|
* Using the following multiplier and modulus, we obtain a
|
|
* generator which:
|
|
*
|
|
* 1) Has a full period: 1 to 2^31 - 2.
|
|
* 2) Is testably "random" (see the article).
|
|
* 3) Has a known implementation by E. L. Schrage.
