Hi again! Quite some days ago, I proposed to include a four-tap shift register RNG to be included in the boost random library. As I have no response yet, I would like to ask how I can help the code to be included into boost. By now, there is no documentation. This has surely to be written and I'm willing to do so. However, what else can I do to help include the code? Are there any guidelines? But most importantly, is there a general interest in the code or not? Greetings, Sebastian
number library. I herby post the code as it might be interesting for others since this type of random number generator is known to produce random numbers with very low 2 and 3 point correlations (see http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/9710104 ). The code is partially taken from the gsl-library and extended to 64bit unsigned integers which gives random numbers of very high precision. However, you can use this code only with the latest random number library from Boost CVS as the numbers
