All Implemented Interfaces:

DoubleFunction, IntFunction, Serializable, Cloneable
```
public class DRand
extends RandomEngine
```
Quick medium quality uniform pseudo-random number generator. Produces uniformly distributed int's and long's in the closed intervals [Integer.MIN_VALUE,Integer.MAX_VALUE] and [Long.MIN_VALUE,Long.MAX_VALUE], respectively, as well as float's and double's in the open unit intervals (0.0f,1.0f) and (0.0,1.0), respectively.
The seed can be any integer satisfying 0 < 4*seed+1 < 2³². In other words, there must hold seed >= 0 && seed < 1073741823.
Quality: This generator follows the multiplicative congruential method of the form
z(i+1) = a * z(i) (mod m) with a=663608941 (=0X278DDE6DL), m=2³².
z(i) assumes all different values 0 < 4*seed+1 < m during a full period of 2³⁰.
Performance: TO_DO
Implementation: TO_DO
Note that this implementation is not synchronized.
