Good theoretical work on algorithms is often defeated by a poor computer implementation. This is particularly true of random number generators for two reasons: the overwhelming concern for speed and the inherent ill- conditioning of the problem. The author concentrates on the coding considerations of a multiplicative congruential generator with properly chosen multiplier and modulus. Implementation of recursive generators on vector processors is also addressed.
