Linear Congruential Random Number Generator
This specific random number generator is described in
"Numerical Recipes in C", 2nd edition, page 284. If you need
random numbers with really excellent statistics, take a look
at Chapter 7...
By definition, a linear congruential random number generator
is of the form: rand[i+1] = a*rand[i] + c (mod m) for specific
values of (a,c,m).
In this case, choose m = 2**32 and use the low-order 32-bits of
the 64-bit product a*N[i]. Knuth suggests the use of a=1664525,
H.W. Lewis has tested C=1013904223 extensively. This routine is
reputedly as good as any 32-bit LCRN, and costs only a single
multiply-add.
Several variants: 32/64-bit, machine word width,
f64 on the closed interval [0,1].
