* Quick medium quality uniform pseudo-random number generator.
*
* Produces uniformly distributed <tt>int</tt>'s and <tt>long</tt>'s in the closed intervals <tt>[Integer.MIN_VALUE,Integer.MAX_VALUE]</tt> and <tt>[Long.MIN_VALUE,Long.MAX_VALUE]</tt>, respectively,
* as well as <tt>float</tt>'s and <tt>double</tt>'s in the open unit intervals <tt>(0.0f,1.0f)</tt> and <tt>(0.0,1.0)</tt>, respectively.
* <p>
* The seed can be any integer satisfying <tt>0 < 4*seed+1 < 2<sup>32</sup></tt>.
* In other words, there must hold <tt>seed >= 0 && seed < 1073741823</tt>.
* <p>
* <b>Quality:</b> This generator follows the multiplicative congruential method of the form
* <dt>
* <tt>z(i+1) = a * z(i) (mod m)</tt> with
* <tt>a=663608941 (=0X278DDE6DL), m=2<sup>32</sup></tt>.
* <dt>
* <tt>z(i)</tt> assumes all different values <tt>0 < 4*seed+1 < m</tt> during a full period of 2<sup>30</sup>.
