A quick test of a random number generator is to generate a series r(1) ... r(n), and then plot r(i) versus r(i+1). You should get a uniform distribution throughout. If not, you are seeing correlations, which is bad. Mark Flynn FLYNN@EVALUN11.(EARN BITNET) Departamto de Fisica Atomica y Nuclear Universidad de Valencia Spain
