Random Numbers from Congruential Generator

Usage

data(randu)

Format

A data frame with 400 observations on 3 variables named x, y and z which give the first, second and third random number in the triplet.

Description

400 Triplets of successive random numbers were taken from the VAX FORTRAN function RANDU running under VMS 1.5.

Details

In three dimensional displays it is evident that the numbers fall in 15 parallel planes in 3-space.

Under VMS versions 2.0 and higher, this problem has been fixed.
