Some portable very‐long‐period random number generators

It is found that a proposed random number generator ran2, recently presented in the Numerical Recipes column [W. H. Press and S. A. Teukolsky, Comput. Phys. 6, 521–524 (1992)], is a good one, but a number of generators are presented that are at least as good and are simpler, much faster, and with pe...
