[jira] [Created] (RNG-16) Linear congruential generators

Emmanuel Bourg created RNG-16:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Linear congruential generators
                 Key: RNG-16
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RNG-16
             Project: Commons RNG
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Emmanuel Bourg
            Priority: Minor


This is a RFE for implementing linear congruential generators:

This type of random generator is often used in language runtimes (Borland C, GCC, Delphi, VB and even Java). Preconfigured generators using the same parameters as these languages would be convenient for reproducing the same number sequences in Java.
