/*
 *  A random number generator called as a function by
 *  random (iseed)  or  irandm (iseed)
 *  The parameter should be a pointer to a 2-element long vector.
 *  The first function returns a double uniform in 0 .. 1.
 *  The second returns a long integer uniform in 0 .. 2**31-1
 *  Both update iseed[] in exactly the same way.
 *  iseed[] must be a 2-element integer vector.
 *  The initial value of the second element may be anything.
 *
 *  The period of the random sequence is 2**32 * (2**32-1)
 *  The table mt[0:127] is defined by mt[i] = 69069 ** (128-i)
