The feasibility of random number generation using microcomputers is discussed and the appropriateness of alternative algorithms is evaluated on the basis of several criteria of statistical randomness. The relative deficiencies of each algorithm are cited and a modified Fibonacci generator is recomme
It is now possible to do serious scientific work on personal computers (PC's). Many simulation studies, whether exploratory or for production runs, call for random numbers. We offer here a new kind of random number generator with implementation tailored specifically for PC's using Intel 8088/8086 or
