28 * random.c:
29 * An improved random number generation package. In addition to the standard
30 * rand()/srand() like interface, this package also has a special state info
31 * interface. The initstate() routine is called with a seed, an array of
32 * bytes, and a count of how many bytes are being passed in; this array is then
33 * initialized to contain information for random number generation with that
34 * much state information. Good sizes for the amount of state information are
35 * 32, 64, 128, and 256 bytes. The state can be switched by calling the
36 * setstate() routine with the same array as was initiallized with initstate().
37 * By default, the package runs with 128 bytes of state information and
38 * generates far better random numbers than a linear congruential generator.
39 * If the amount of state information is less than 32 bytes, a simple linear
40 * congruential R.N.G. is used.
41 * Internally, the state information is treated as an array of longs; the
42 * zeroeth element of the array is the type of R.N.G. being used (small
43 * integer); the remainder of the array is the state information for the
44 * R.N.G. Thus, 32 bytes of state information will give 7 longs worth of
45 * state information, which will allow a degree seven polynomial. (Note: the
46 * zeroeth word of state information also has some other information stored
47 * in it -- see setstate() for details).
48 * The random number generation technique is a linear feedback shift register
49 * approach, employing trinomials (since there are fewer terms to sum up that
50 * way). In this approach, the least significant bit of all the numbers in
51 * the state table will act as a linear feedback shift register, and will have
52 * period 2^deg - 1 (where deg is the degree of the polynomial being used,
53 * assuming that the polynomial is irreducible and primitive). The higher
54 * order bits will have longer periods, since their values are also influenced
55 * by pseudo-random carries out of the lower bits. The total period of the
56 * generator is approximately deg*(2**deg - 1); thus doubling the amount of
57 * state information has a vast influence on the period of the generator.
58 * Note: the deg*(2**deg - 1) is an approximation only good for large deg,
59 * when the period of the shift register is the dominant factor. With deg
60 * equal to seven, the period is actually much longer than the 7*(2**7 - 1)
61 * predicted by this formula.
65 * For each of the currently supported random number generators, we have a
66 * break value on the amount of state information (you need at least this
67 * many bytes of state info to support this random number generator), a degree
68 * for the polynomial (actually a trinomial) that the R.N.G. is based on, and
69 * the separation between the two lower order coefficients of the trinomial.

134 * fptr and rptr are two pointers into the state info, a front and a rear
135 * pointer. These two pointers are always rand_sep places aparts, as they cycle
136 * cyclically through the state information. (Yes, this does mean we could get
137 * away with just one pointer, but the code for random() is more efficient this
138 * way). The pointers are left positioned as they would be from the call
139 * initstate( 1, randtbl, 128 )
140 * (The position of the rear pointer, rptr, is really 0 (as explained above
141 * in the initialization of randtbl) because the state table pointer is set
142 * to point to randtbl[1] (as explained below).
147 * The following things are the pointer to the state information table,
148 * the type of the current generator, the degree of the current polynomial
149 * being used, and the separation between the two pointers.
150 * Note that for efficiency of random(), we remember the first location of
151 * the state information, not the zeroeth. Hence it is valid to access
152 * state[-1], which is used to store the type of the R.N.G.
153 * Also, we remember the last location, since this is more efficient than
154 * indexing every time to find the address of the last element to see if
155 * the front and rear pointers have wrapped.
