/**
* Abstract base class for uniform pseudo-random number generating engines.
* <p>
* Most probability distributions are obtained by using a <b>uniform</b> pseudo-random number generation engine
* followed by a transformation to the desired distribution.
* Thus, subclasses of this class are at the core of computational statistics, simulations, Monte Carlo methods, etc.
* <p>
* Subclasses produce 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>
* Subclasses need to override one single method only: <tt>nextInt()</tt>.
* All other methods generating different data types or ranges are usually layered upon <tt>nextInt()</tt>.
* <tt>long</tt>'s are formed by concatenating two 32 bit <tt>int</tt>'s.
* <tt>float</tt>'s are formed by dividing the interval <tt>[0.0f,1.0f]</tt> into 2<sup>32</sup> sub intervals,
* then randomly choosing one subinterval.
* <tt>double</tt>'s are formed by dividing the interval <tt>[0.0,1.0]</tt> into 2<sup>64</sup> sub intervals,
* then randomly choosing one subinterval.
* <p>
* Note that this implementation is <b>not synchronized</b>.
