/* 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.

 Generators", Mathematics of Computation, 65, 213 (1996), 203--213.

 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).
