[net.lang.lisp] Bug in random function

dpit@ur-tut.UUCP (Mr. Crypt) (11/26/85)

I have encountered what might be a bug in Franz Lisp Opus 38.91, running on a
Pyramid. The random function return an error of non-fixnum arguement when
given any number greater than or equal to 10 ^ 10, however when tested with
the using (fixp 10^10), a value of 't' is returned.  Has anyone encountered
this problem or have a fix?

I realize that this is a repitition of a previous posting to this newsgroup,
but I have not yet received a response, and I would like to know how Franz
handles large numbers.

Thanks in advance.
