SOURCE CODE AND DISCUSSION OF NEWER & BETTER PORTABLE RANDOM NUMBER GENERATORS

Newer and better portable Random Number Generators have been invented since this paper was written. The following link is to the chapter on new Random Number Generators from the book Numerical Recipes in Fortran 90 Volume 2 of Numerical Recipes in Fortran by William H. Press, et al. This is an excellent book; you should own a copy. Get Adobe Acrobat Reader Requires the free Adobe Acrobat reader which your computer probably already has.
