RNG – Random Number Generator

A collection of algorithms that generate pseudo random numbers between 0 and 1.  This generator was designed to support the massively parallel computing simulations of the LLNL Advanced Simulation and Computing Program  (ASCI) program.  RNG can generate 2⁶⁴ (or 18,446,744,073,709,551,616) numbers without repetition.  A new version currently under development will generate 2¹²⁸ numbers.
