     23  * Here is a very good random number generator.  This implementation is
     24  * based on ``Two Fast Implementations of the "Minimal Standard" Random
     25  * Number Generator'', David G. Carta, Communications of the ACM, Jan 1990,
     26  * Vol 33 No 1.  Do NOT modify this code unless you have a very thorough
     27  * understanding of the algorithm.  It's trickier than you think.  If
     28  * you do change it, make sure that its 10,000'th invocation returns
     29  * 1043618065.

     36  * Here is easier-to-decipher pseudocode:
     37  *
     38  * p = (16807*seed)<30:0>	# e.g., the low 31 bits of the product
     39  * q = (16807*seed)<62:31>	# e.g., the high 31 bits starting at bit 32
     40  * if (p + q < 2^31)
     41  * 	seed = p + q
     42  * else
     43  *	seed = ((p + q) & (2^31 - 1)) + 1
     44  * return (seed);
     45  *
     46  * The result is in (0,2^31), e.g., it's always positive.
