/* This is a lagged fibonacci generator with skipping developed by Luescher.
   The sequence is a series of 24-bit integers, x_n, 

   x_n = d_n + b_n

   where d_n = x_{n-10} - x_{n-24} - c_{n-1}, b_n = 0 if d_n >= 0 and
   b_n = 2^24 if d_n < 0, c_n = 0 if d_n >= 0 and c_n = 1 if d_n < 0,
   where after 24 samples a group of p integers are "skipped", to
   reduce correlations. By default p = 199, but can be increased to
   365.

   The period of the generator is around 10^171.
