Detailed Description

A pseudo random number generator using the linear congruential algorithm with the following parameters: 

    Xn+1 = (aXn + c) mod m, where n >= 0

    a = 0x5DEECE66D,
    c = 0xB
    m = 2**48

It delivers results identical to the lrand48() function that is available on some systems.
