50 /* An improved random number generation package. In addition to the standard
51 rand()/srand() like interface, this package also has a special state info
52 interface. The initstate() routine is called with a seed, an array of
53 bytes, and a count of how many bytes are being passed in; this array is
54 then initialized to contain information for random number generation with
55 that much state information. Good sizes for the amount of state
56 information are 32, 64, 128, and 256 bytes. The state can be switched by
57 calling the setstate() function with the same array as was initiallized
58 with initstate(). By default, the package runs with 128 bytes of state
59 information and generates far better random numbers than a linear
60 congruential generator. If the amount of state information is less than
61 32 bytes, a simple linear congruential R.N.G. is used. Internally, the
62 state information is treated as an array of longs; the zeroeth element of
63 the array is the type of R.N.G. being used (small integer); the remainder
64 of the array is the state information for the R.N.G. Thus, 32 bytes of
65 state information will give 7 longs worth of state information, which will
66 allow a degree seven polynomial. (Note: The zeroeth word of state
67 information also has some other information stored in it; see setstate
68 for details). The random number generation technique is a linear feedback
69 shift register approach, employing trinomials (since there are fewer terms
70 to sum up that way). In this approach, the least significant bit of all
71 the numbers in the state table will act as a linear feedback shift register,
72 and will have period 2^deg - 1 (where deg is the degree of the polynomial
73 being used, assuming that the polynomial is irreducible and primitive).
74 The higher order bits will have longer periods, since their values are
75 also influenced by pseudo-random carries out of the lower bits. The
76 total period of the generator is approximately deg*(2**deg - 1); thus
77 doubling the amount of state information has a vast influence on the
78 period of the generator. Note: The deg*(2**deg - 1) is an approximation
79 only good for large deg, when the period of the shift register is the
80 dominant factor. With deg equal to seven, the period is actually much
81 longer than the 7*(2**7 - 1) predicted by this formula. */

85 /* For each of the currently supported random number generators, we have a
86 break value on the amount of state information (you need at least thi
87 bytes of state info to support this random number generator), a degree for
88 the polynomial (actually a trinomial) that the R.N.G. is based on, and
89 separation between the two lower order coefficients of the trinomial. */
