/*  lrand(3)
 *
 *  Author: Terrence W. Holm          Nov. 1988
 *
 *
 *  A prime modulus multiplicative linear congruential
 *  generator (PMMLCG), or "Lehmer generator".
 *  Implementation directly derived from the article:
 *
 *	S. K. Park and K. W. Miller
 *	Random Number Generators: Good Ones are Hard to Find
 *	CACM vol 31, #10. Oct. 1988. pp 1192-1201.
 *
 *
 *  Using the following multiplier and modulus, we obtain a
 *  generator which:
 *
 *	1)  Has a full period: 1 to 2^31 - 2.
 *	2)  Is testably "random" (see the article).
 *	3)  Has a known implementation by E. L. Schrage.
