Detailed Description

Random number generator.

This is a clone of the drand48 algorithm. This is significantly quicker than drand48, presumably due to the compiler inlining the sampling methods. It is also significantly quicker than the standard library linear congruential engine, as it does not use Schrage's algorithm to prevent overflow.

See http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908775/xsh/drand48.html for details of the seeding and iteration sequence.
