 * Header file for implementation of the Mersenne twister pseudo-random number
 * generator, crated by Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura. Further
 * information on the Mersenne Twister can be found at
 * http://www.math.keio.ac.jp/~matsumoto/emt.html [ dead link.  -bds 2007feb]
 *
 * This forms the basic underlying algorithm for most psuedo-random number
 * generation in LinBox.
 *
 * N.B. This module is tested in test-modular under the random number
 * generator tests.
