MT19937

An MT19937 Mersenne Twister rng implementation, with the goal of being compatible with CPython's _random module.

A C-program for MT19937, with initialization improved 2002/1/26. Coded by Takuji Nishimura and Makoto Matsumoto.

Before using, initialize the state by using init_genrand(seed) or init_by_array(init_key, key_length).
