C This random number generator originally appeared in "Toward a Universal
C Random Number Generator" by George Marsaglia and Arif Zaman.
C Florida State University Report: FSU-SCRI-87-50 (1987)
C
C It was later modified by F. James and published in "A Review of Pseudo-
C random Number Generators"
C
C THIS IS THE BEST KNOWN RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR AVAILABLE.
C (However, a newly discovered technique can yield
C a period of 10^600. But that is still in the development stage.)
C
C It passes ALL of the tests for random number generators and has a period
C of 2^144, is completely portable (gives bit identical results on all
C machines with at least 24-bit mantissas in the floating point
C representation).
C
C The algorithm is a combination of a Fibonacci sequence (with lags of 97
C and 33, and operation "subtraction plus one, modulo one") and an
C "arithmetic sequence" (using subtraction).
C========================================================================
This C language version was written by Jim Butler, and was based on a
FORTRAN program posted by David LaSalle of Florida State University.

C This is the initialization routine for the random number generator RANMAR()
C NOTE: The seed variables can have values between: 0 <= IJ <= 31328
C 0 <= KL <= 30081
C The random number sequences created by these two seeds are of sufficient
C length to complete an entire calculation with. For example, if sveral
C different groups are working on different parts of the same calculation,
C each group could be assigned its own IJ seed. This would leave each group
C with 30000 choices for the second seed. That is to say, this random
C number generator can create 900 million different subsequences -- with
C each subsequence having a length of approximately 10^30.
C
C Use IJ = 1802 & KL = 9373 to test the random number generator. The
C subroutine RANMAR should be used to generate 20000 random numbers.
C Then display the next six random numbers generated multiplied by 4096*4096
