Detailed Description
Uniform random number generator.
Random number generator by Knuth. For more details see Knuth, Seminumerical Algorithms, 3rd edition, Section 3.6. - Note:
- This is not Knuth's original implementation which is available at http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/programs.html, but rather a slightly modified version wrapped in a C++ class. Such modifications did not affect the code but only the data structures used, which were converted to their standard C++ equivalents.
