33  * random.c:
34  * An improved random number generation package.  In addition to the standard
35  * rand()/srand() like interface, this package also has a special state info
36  * interface.  The initstate() routine is called with a seed, an array of
37  * bytes, and a count of how many bytes are being passed in; this array is then
38  * initialized to contain information for random number generation with that
39  * much state information.  Good sizes for the amount of state information are
40  * 32, 64, 128, and 256 bytes.  The state can be switched by calling the
41  * setstate() routine with the same array as was initiallized with initstate().
42  * By default, the package runs with 128 bytes of state information and
43  * generates far better random numbers than a linear congruential generator.
44  * If the amount of state information is less than 32 bytes, a simple linear
45  * congruential R.N.G. is used.
46  * Internally, the state information is treated as an array of longs; the
47  * zeroeth element of the array is the type of R.N.G. being used (small
48  * integer); the remainder of the array is the state information for the
49  * R.N.G.  Thus, 32 bytes of state information will give 7 longs worth of
50  * state information, which will allow a degree seven polynomial.  (Note: the
51  * zeroeth word of state information also has some other information stored
52  * in it -- see setstate() for details).
53  * The random number generation technique is a linear feedback shift register
54  * approach, employing trinomials (since there are fewer terms to sum up that
55  * way).  In this approach, the least significant bit of all the numbers in
56  * the state table will act as a linear feedback shift register, and will have
57  * period 2^deg - 1 (where deg is the degree of the polynomial being used,
58  * assuming that the polynomial is irreducible and primitive).  The higher
59  * order bits will have longer periods, since their values are also influenced
60  * by pseudo-random carries out of the lower bits.  The total period of the
61  * generator is approximately deg*(2**deg - 1); thus doubling the amount of
62  * state information has a vast influence on the period of the generator.
63  * Note: the deg*(2**deg - 1) is an approximation only good for large deg,
64  * when the period of the shift register is the dominant factor.  With deg
65  * equal to seven, the period is actually much longer than the 7*(2**7 - 1)
66  * predicted by this formula.

71 /*
72  * For each of the currently supported random number generators, we have a
73  * break value on the amount of state information (you need at least this
74  * many bytes of state info to support this random number generator), a degree
75  * for the polynomial (actually a trinomial) that the R.N.G. is based on, and
76  * the separation between the two lower order coefficients of the trinomial.
