|
* DESCRIPTION |
|
* |
|
* This file contains a simple, straightforward implementation of the Park |
|
* & Miller "Minimal Standard" PRNG [PM88, PMS93], which is a Lehmer |
|
* multiplicative linear congruential generator (MLCG) with a period of |
|
* 2^31-1. |
|
* |
|
* This implementation is intended to provide a reliable, portable PRNG |
|
* that is suitable for testing a hash table implementation and for |
|
* implementing skip lists. |
|
* |
|
* FUTURE ENHANCEMENTS |
|
* |
|
* If initial seeds are not selected randomly, two instances of the PRNG |
|
* can be correlated. [Knuth81, pp. 32-33] describes a shuffling technique |
|
* that can eliminate this problem. |
|
* |
|
* If PRNGs are used for simulation, the period of the current |
|
* implementation may be too short. [LE88] discusses methods of combining |
|
* MLCGs to produce much longer periods, and suggests some alternative |
|
* values for A and M. [LE90 and Sch92] also provide information on |
|
* long-period PRNGs. |
