unidist



NAME

     unidist - Pseudorandom number generator with uniform distri-
     bution over (0,1).


SYNOPSIS

     double unidist()


DESCRIPTION

     Unidist is a pseudorandom number generator  with  a  uniform
     distribution  over the interval (0,1).  Numbers are obtained
     through calls to GFSR(), which uses an  interval  of  [0,1].
     Old  states  can be read using readGFSR(). New states can be
     preserved  using  writeGFSR().  For  more   information   on
     preserving states, see gfsr(3).


FORTRAN COMPATIBILITY

     Unidist may be called in Fortran as a function of type  DOU-
     BLE PRECISION (i.e., REAL*8).
