The New Naval Postgraduate School Random Number Package - LLRANDOMII

Abstract

This report describes the usage of LLRANDOMII, an IBM 370 set of Assembly Language programs which generate arrays of integer and real (floating point) pseudo random numbers, as well as arrays of Normal, Exponential, Gamma, Cauchy, Poisson and Geometric random deviates. In addition the package will generate order statistics associated with these deviates. A shuffled version of the two basic random number generators in the package can be used for greater statistical reliability. Timings for these very fast subroutines are given, as well as timings for comparable IMSL Chapter G. subroutines.
