[comp.lang.modula2] Random Number algorithm

yu-d@anaconda.cis.ohio-state.edu (Moonrise Programmer) (10/30/90)

	Does anybody have a random number generator I can use?  Or a reference I can look up?  I've been messing around with the FST Modula-2 v2.0 compiler but the libraries don't have a random number generator.  I made one up but I don't really like it.  

	My, my this newsgroup is getting spicier.  Imagine Satanism and Modula-w hand in hand, I never would have thought.  :-)
