I had a couple of problems with the patches posted to net.sources for the
markov3.l program. The patches stopped the core dumps but I found that the
bit-wise operations happening in the roll(n) function were causing WAY too
much duplication on the machine I am using (Tandy 6000, XENIX 3.01.02). As
the roll(n) function is just supposed to return a random number between 0 and
n-1 I have applied the following fix using the % operator. My markov3.l works
great if line 377 reads like:
return(rand() % n);
This is a great program (although it's a memory piggy)... thanks!
