	TITLE	RAND	RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR
	SUBTTL B.E -21.OCTOBER 1970
	;modified 14 sept 80 to pushj/popj calling convention
	;for decus by paul t. robinson, wesleyan univ.
	;modifications in lower case

	;DRAND.F4 IS A SAMPLE PROGRAM, WHEN USED IN CONJUNCTION
	;WITH RAND.MAC(LOADED AND SAVED AS DRAND.SAV) WILL
	;ILLUSTRATE THE USE OF RAND.MAC
 
	;MULTIPLICATIVE CONGRUENTIAL RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR TO
	;BE CALLED AS A FUNCTION FROM A FORTRAN PROGRAM. THERE
	;ARE TWO ENTRY POINTS:
	;	1) IRAND RETURNS A RANDOM INTEGER BETWEEN
	;	   0 AND 2**35 - 1.
	;	2) RAND RETURNS A RANDOM FLOATING POINT NUM-
	;	   BER BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0.
	;BOTH CALLS REQUIRE A SINGLE INTEGER ARGUMENT WHICH
	;IS USED TO GENERATE A RANDOM INTEGER BY MEANS OF THE
	;FORMULA:
	;	R = (5**13)*ARG  (MOD 2**35)
	;THE RANDOM INTEGER THUS GENERATED IS STORED OVER
	;THE ARGUMENT TO BECOME THE ARGUMENT FOR THE NEXT CALL,
	;HENCE THE ARGUMENT MUST APPEAR IN THE CALLING SEQUENCE
	;AS A VARIABLE RATHER THAN A CONSTANT. IF THE CALL
	;WAS TO RAND, THE NEW RANDOM INTEGER IS CONVERTED TO A 
	;FLOATING POINT NUMBER BETWEEN 0.0 AND 1.0 BEFORE 
	;RETURNING.  VIDE GORENSTEIN, "TESTING A RANDOM NUMBER
	;GENERATOR", COMM ACM, FEB 67.
