+/* Test program for random(), srandom(), initstate(), setstate()
+   Written by Michael J. Fischer, August 21, 2000
+   Placed in the public domain.  */
+
+/* This program primarily tests the correct functioning of srandom()
+   and setstate().  The strategy is generate and store a set of random
+   sequences, each with a specified starting seed.  Then each sequence
+   is regenerated twice and checked against the stored values.
+
+   First they are regenerated one sequence at a time, using srandom()
+   to set the initial state.  A discrepency here would suggest that
+   srandom() was failing to completely initialize the random number
+   generator.
+
+   Second the sequences are regenerated in an interleaved order.
+   A state vector is created for each sequence using initstate().
+   setstate() is used to switch from sequence to sequence during
+   the interleaved generation.  A discrepency here would suggest
+   a problem with either initstate() failing to initialize the
+   random number generator properly, or the failure of setstate()
+   to correctly save and restore state information.  Also, each
+   time setstate() is called, the returned value is checked for
+   correctness (since we know what it should be).
+
+   Note:  We use default state vector for sequence 0 and our own
+   state vectors for the remaining sequences.  This is to give a check
+   that the value returned by initstate() is valid and can indeed be
+   used in the future.  */
+
+/* Strategy:
+   1.  Use srandom() followed by calls on random to generate a set of
+       sequences of values.
+   2.  Regenerate and check the sequences.
+   3.  Use initstate() to create new states.
+   4.  Regenerate the sequences in an interleaved manner and check.
