/*
 * C library functions for generating pseudorandom numbers using the
 * Mersenne Twist algorithm.  See M. Matsumoto and T. Nishimura,
 * "Mersenne Twister: A 623-Dimensionally Equidistributed Uniform
 * Pseudo-Random Number Generator", ACM Transactions on Modeling and
 * Computer Simulation, Vol. 8, No. 1, January 1998, pp 3--30.
 *
 * The Web page on the Mersenne Twist algorithm is at:
 *
 * http://www.math.keio.ac.jp/~matumoto/emt.html
 *
 * These functions were written by Geoffrey H. Kuenning, Claremont, CA.
 *
 * IMPORTANT NOTE: the Makefile must define two machine-specific
 * variables to get optimum features and performance:
 *
 *	MT_NO_INLINE	should be defined if the compiler doesn't support
 *			the "inline" keyword.
 *	MT_NO_LONGLONG	should be defined if the compiler doesn't support a
 *			"long long" type for 64-bit integers
 *	MT_MACHINE_BITS	must be either 32 or 64, reflecting the natural
 *			size of the processor registers.  If undefined, it
 *			will default to 32.
 *
 * The first two variables above are defined in an inverted sense
 * because I expect that most compilers will support inline and
 * long-long.  By inverting the sense, this common case will require
 * no special compiler flags.
 *
 * IMPORTANT NOTE: this software assumes that the inherent width of a
 * "long" is 32 bits.  If you are running on a machine that uses
 * 64-bit longs, some of the declarations and code will have to be
 * modified.
 *
 * This software is based on LGPL-ed code by Takuji Nishimura.  It has
 * also been heavily influenced by code written by Shawn Cokus, and
 * somewhat influenced by code written by Richard J. Wagner.  It is
 * therefore also distributed under the LGPL:

 * $Log: mtwist.c,v $
 * Revision 1.19  2003/09/11 05:55:19  geoff
 * Get rid of some minor compiler warnings.
 *
 * Revision 1.18  2003/09/11 05:50:53  geoff
 * Don't #define inline to nothing, since that breaks standard include
 * files.  Instead, use MT_INLINE as a synonym.
 *
 * Revision 1.17  2002/10/31 22:07:10  geoff
 * Make WIN32 detection work with GCC as well as MS C
 *
 * Revision 1.16  2002/10/31 22:04:59  geoff
 * Fix a typo in the WIN32 option
 *
 * Revision 1.15  2002/10/31 06:01:43  geoff
 * Incorporate Joseph Brill's Windows-portability changes
 *
 * Revision 1.14  2002/10/30 07:39:53  geoff
 * Reintroduce the old seeding functions (so that old code will still
 * produce the same results), and give the new versions new names.
 *
 * Revision 1.13  2002/10/30 01:08:26  geoff
 * Switch to M&T's new initialization method
 *
 * Revision 1.12  2001/06/18 05:40:12  geoff
 * Prefix the compile options with MT_.
 *
 * Revision 1.11  2001/06/14 10:26:59  geoff
 * Invert the sense of the #define flags so that the default is the
 * normal case (if gcc is normal!).  Also default MT_MACHINE_BITS to 32.
 *
 * Revision 1.10  2001/06/14 10:10:38  geoff
 * Move the RNG functions into the header file so they can be inlined.
 * Add saving/loading of state.  Add a function that marks the PRNG as
 * initialized while also calculating critical constants.  Run the
 * refresh routine whenever seed32 is called.  Add functions to seed
 * based on /dev/random or the time.
 *
 * Revision 1.9  2001/06/11 10:00:04  geoff
 * Major changes to improve flexibility and performance, and to prepare
 * for inlining.  This code is about as fast as it can get without
 * inlining the various PRNG functions.  Add seed/goodseed/bestseed for
 * seeding from random start values.  Add the refresh routine a la Cokus,
 * but optimize it by unrolling loops.  Change getstate to return a
 * complete state pointer, since knowing the position in the state vector
 * is critical to restoring state.  Add more macros to improve
 * readability.  Rename certain macros in preparation for inlining.  Get
 * rid of leftover optimizer-bug stuff.  Stop using mtwist_guts.h;
 * instead use direct code (via macros) and the refresh function.
 *
 * Revision 1.8  2001/04/23 08:36:03  geoff
 * Move the #defined code into a header file to ease stepping with a debugger.
 *
 * Revision 1.7  2001/04/23 08:00:13  geoff
 * Add code to work around optimizer bug
 *
 * Revision 1.6  2001/04/14 01:33:32  geoff
 * Clarify the license
 *
 * Revision 1.5  2001/04/09 08:45:00  geoff
 * Rename default_state to mt_default_state, and make it global so that
 * the random-distribution code can use it.
 *
 * Revision 1.4  2001/04/07 23:24:11  geoff
 * My guess in the commentary for the last delta was right: it's faster
 * on a x86 to convert the two halves of the PRN to double, multiplying
 * them by the appropriate value to scale them, and then add them as
 * doubles.  I suspect the reason is that there is no instruction to
 * convert a 64-bit value directly to a double, so the work of building
 * the long long (which isn't easy anyway, without assembly access) is
 * worse than wasted.  So add support for MT_MACHINE_BITS, and only go
 * the via-long-long route on a true 64-bit machine.
 *
 * Revision 1.3  2001/04/07 23:09:38  geoff
 * Get rid of MT_INLINE.  Convert all of the code to use preprocessor
 * macros for the guts of the PRNG code.  Take advantage of the
 * conversion to get rid of unnecessary calls initialization tests.  Also
 * clean up the generation of long-double pseudorandom numbers on
 * machines that have the long long type (by converting first to a long
 * long, then to a double, saving one floating-point operation).  The
 * latter change might be a mistake on 32-bit machines.  The code is now
 * much faster as a result of macro-izing.
 *
 * Revision 1.2  2001/04/07 22:21:41  geoff
 * Make the long-double code a hair faster by always having a 64-bit
 * conversion constant.  Add commentary to the PRNG loop.
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2001/04/07 09:43:41  geoff
 * Initial revision

     * 2-statement sequence so that we can handle the wraparound
     * explicitly, rather than having to use the relatively slow
     * modulus operator.
     *
     * In essence, the recurrence relation concatenates bits
     * chosen from the current random value (last time around)
     * with the immediately preceding one.  Then it
     * matrix-multiplies the concatenated bits with a value
     * RECURRENCE_OFFSET away and a constant matrix.  The matrix
     * multiplication reduces to a shift and two XORs.
     *
     * Some comments on the optimizations are in order:
     *
     * Strictly speaking, none of the optimizations should be
     * necessary.  All could conceivably be done by a really good
     * compiler.  However, the compilers available to me aren't quite
     * smart enough, so hand optimization needs to be done.
     *
     * Shawn Cokus was the first to achieve a major speedup.  In the
     * original code, the first value given to COMBINE_BITS (in my
     * characterization) was re-fetched from the state array, rather
     * than being carried in a scratch variable.  Cokus noticed that
     * the first argument to COMBINE_BITS could be saved in a register
     * in the previous loop iteration, getting rid of the need for an
     * expensive memory reference.
     *
     * Cokus also switched to using pointers to access the state
     * array and broke the original loop into two so that he could
     * avoid using the expensive modulus operator.  Cokus used three
     * pointers; Richard J. Wagner noticed that the offsets between
     * the three were constant, so that they could be collapsed into a
     * single pointer and constant-offset accesses.  This is clearly
     * faster on x86 architectures, and is the same cost on RISC
     * machines.  A secondary benefit is that Cokus' version was
     * register-starved on the x86, while Wagner's version was not.
     *
     * I made several smaller improvements to these observations.
     * First, I reversed the contents of the state vector.  In the
     * current version of the code, this change doesn't directly
     * affect the performance of the refresh loop, but it has the nice
     * side benefit that an all-zero state structure represents an
     * uninitialized generator.  It also slightly speeds up the
     * random-number routines, since they can compare the state
     * pointer against zero instead of against a constant (this makes
     * the biggest difference on RISC machines).
     *
     * Second, I returned to Matsumoto and Nishimura's original
     * technique of using a lookup table to decide whether to xor the
     * constant vector A (MATRIX_A in this code) with the newly
     * computed value.  Cokus and Wagner had used the ?: operator,
     * which requires a test and branch.  Modern machines don't like
     * branches, so the table lookup is faster.
     *
     * Third, in the Cokus and Wagner versions the loop ends with a
     * statement similar to "value1 = value2", which is necessary to
     * carry the fetched value into the next loop iteration.  I
     * recognized that if the loop were unrolled so that it generates
     * two values per iteration, a bit of variable renaming would get
     * rid of that assignment.  A nice side effect is that the
     * overhead of loop control becomes only half as large.
     *
     * It is possible to improve the code's performance somewhat
     * further.  In particular, since the second loop's loop count
     * factors into 2*2*3*3*11, it could be unrolled yet further.
     * That's easy to do, too: just change the "/ 2" into a division
     * by whatever factor you choose, and then use cut-and-paste to
     * duplicate the code in the body.  To remove a few more cycles,
     * fix the code to decrement state_ptr by the unrolling factor, and
     * adjust the various offsets appropriately.  However, the payoff
     * will be small.  At the moment, the x86 version of the loop is
     * 25 instructions, of which 3 are involved in loop control
     * (including the decrementing of state_ptr).  Further unrolling by
     * a factor of 2 would thus produce only about a 6% speedup.
     *
     * The logical extension of the unrolling
     * approach would be to remove the loops and create 624
     * appropriate copies of the body.  However, I think that doing
     * the latter is a bit excessive!
     *
     * I suspect that a superior optimization would be to simplify the
     * mathematical operations involved in the recurrence relation.
     * However, I have no idea whether such a simplification is
     * feasible.
