Let's try this ONE more time :-)

For people that cant read English, i post this one more
time:

constant n=#10000

function Rand32()
  --no reason why you cant make this more inline...
  atom a,b,c

  a=rand(n)-1
  b=rand(n)-1
  c=a*n+b
  return c
end function

Notes:
1. For two added rnd numbers the distribution should be the same.
   It's multiplication that changes the distribution.
2. Two rand sequences from the same generator that show no
   correlation, when added, form a new rand sequence that will
   show no correlation to another rand sequence generated in
   exactly the same way.
3. Multiplication, such as rand1*rand2 changes the distribution greatly.
4. Note that to generate 'a' above you cant use rand(n).

Take care,
Al

And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
