Ladies and Gentlepersons,
Does anyone know any good random number generating algorithms, (or
even not so good ones).
I'm using an FP which has no facility to generate them. It would be extremely
useful (well, a lot less hassle for me) if the algorithm was expressed in
Miranda, (Hope or ML at a push).
Thanks well in advance.
Dave Westland.

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.''
