A Random Normal Number Generator for 32-Bit-Word Computers

Pages 400-403 | Published online: 05 Apr 2012
 

Abstract

Some random normal number generators that were satisfactory for 36-bit-word computers are inadequate for equipment such as the IBM System/360, using a 32-bit-word. A generator is presented and shown to be satisfactory relative to several criteria for testing normality and randomness.
