Re: Random number generators for NDFS block numbers

[Paul Baclace]

Thanks to archive.org, I found this additional reference:

  http://www.math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~m-mat/eindex.html

which is the English home page of Matsumoto san, co-originator of Mersenne 
Twister.
There is a faq and the original C source.
