/* This is a maximally equidistributed combined Tausworthe
   generator. The sequence is,

   x_n = (s1_n ^ s2_n ^ s3_n) 

   s1_{n+1} = (((s1_n & 4294967294) <<12) ^ (((s1_n <<13) ^ s1_n) >>19))
   s2_{n+1} = (((s2_n & 4294967288) << 4) ^ (((s2_n << 2) ^ s2_n) >>25))
   s3_{n+1} = (((s3_n & 4294967280) <<17) ^ (((s3_n << 3) ^ s3_n) >>11))

   computed modulo 2^32. In the three formulas above '^' means
   exclusive-or (C-notation), not exponentiation. Note that the
   algorithm relies on the properties of 32-bit unsigned integers (it
   is formally defined on bit-vectors of length 32). I have added a
   bitmask to make it work on 64 bit machines.

   We initialize the generator with s1_1 .. s3_1 = s_n MOD m, where
   s_n = (69069 * s_{n-1}) mod 2^32, and s_0 = s is the user-supplied
   seed.

   The theoretical value of x_{10007} is 2733957125. The subscript
   10007 means (1) seed the generator with s=1 (2) do six warm-up
   iterations, (3) then do 10000 actual iterations.

   The period of this generator is about 2^88.

   Update: April 2002

   There is an erratum in the paper "Tables of Maximally
   Equidistributed Combined LFSR Generators", Mathematics of
   Computation, 68, 225 (1999), 261--269:
   http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~lecuyer/myftp/papers/tausme2.ps

        ... the k_j most significant bits of z_j must be non-
        zero, for each j. (Note: this restriction also applies to the 
        computer code given in [4], but was mistakenly not mentioned in
        that paper.)
   
   This affects the seeding procedure by imposing the requirement
   s1 > 1, s2 > 7, s3 > 15.

   The generator taus2 has been added to satisfy this requirement.
   The original taus generator is unchanged.

   Update: November 2002

   There was a bug in the correction to the seeding procedure for s2.
   It affected the following seeds 254679140 1264751179 1519430319
   2274823218 2529502358 3284895257 3539574397 (s2 < 8).
