Naval Postgraduate School random number generator package LLRANDOM
navalpostgraduat00lewi.pdf (2.200Mb)Abstract
The report is intended to describe an interim version of a computer program package for random number generation on the IBM System/360. The package, when called by a FORTRAN 4 program, will deliver either a single value or an array (of specified size) of single precision uniformly, normally, or exponentially distributed pseudo-random deviates, or a single value or an array of uniformly distributed integers between 1 and ((2 to the 31st power)-1). The package also has the ability (optional) to shuffle the pseudo-random numbers to obtain better statistical properties. (Author)

Graphical analysis of some pseudo-random number generators
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1986-12); NPS55-86-025There exist today many 'good' pseudo-random number generators; the problem is to retrieve them. This document discusses three commonly used pseudo- random number generators, the first being RANDU, a notoriously bad generator, ... -
Determining partition elements with feedback constraints
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1970-06);The partition problem is that step in the layout problem in which it must be decided which of the elementary digital circuits are to be coalesced into a single, electronic package. A solution of the partition problem must ... -
The new Naval Postgraduate School random number package LLRANDOMII
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1981-02); NPS55-81-005This report describes the usage of LLRANDOMII, an IBM 370 set of Assembly Language programs which generate arrays of integer and real (floating point) pseudo random numbers, as well as arrays of Normal, Exponential, Gamma, ...
