Argument

Return Value

RANDOM_NUMBER is a subroutine.

Description

The random number used in the 2.0 and newer releases of pghpf generates a 46 bit lagged fibonacci pseudo-random sequence with a short lag of 5 and a long lag of 17. For a given seed, including the default seed, the sequence generated is independent of the platform and number of processors. Due to limitations of some platforms' default integer type, the seed vector is of size 34. Only the least significant 23 bits of each element of the seed array are used, thus a seed array returned or used is portable between platforms. For non-degenerate seed arrays, the period of this generator is (217 - 1) * 245. If all the odd elements of the seed array are even, the period will be shorter.

The best performance on distributed arrays is for block distributions. The higher the order of the first distributed dimension, the better the performance will be.
