A fast procedure for generating random numbers by a modification of the Marsaglia-Maclaren method

Marsaglia and Maclaren combined two linear congruential generators in order to produce a pseudo random number sequence uniformly distributed in the range [0,2³⁵]. Their method is a considerable improvement compared with the primitive linear congruential method at the cost of greater generation time....
