Name        : ghc-mwc-random
Product     : Fedora 18
Version     : 0.12.0.1
Release     : 2.fc18
URL         : http://hackage.haskell.org/package/mwc-random
Summary     : Fast, high quality pseudo random number generation
Description :
A library for generating high quality random numbers that follow
either a uniform or normal distribution.  The generated numbers are
suitable for use in statistical applications.
The uniform PRNG uses Marsaglia's MWC256 (also known as MWC8222)
multiply-with-carry generator, which has a period of 2^8222 and
fares well in tests of randomness.  It is also extremely fast,
between 2 and 3 times faster than the Mersenne Twister.

Compared to the mersenne-random package, this package has a more
convenient API, is faster, and supports more statistical distributions.
