CNCL provides a variety of random number generators, ranging from the very simple linear congruence generator to more sophisticated ones. Also included is a random number generator which reads random data from a file.
Random numbers are a crucial base of every simulation; most of the pseudo random number generators included in CNCL have their faults and short-comings.
The base random number generators are used by the random distribution classes to generate random numbers with the desired distribution.
