// Some terminology:
// IRNG = Integer Random Number Generator.  IRNGs generate random
//        integers, which are used to create floating-point random
//        numbers.
// RNG  = Random Number Generator.  RNGs use IRNGs to create floating-
//        point random numbers following desired distributions.

// These are type tags.  A RNG with sharedState shares an IRNG
// with other RNGs.  An RNG with independentState
// contains its own IRNG.  Generally, sharedState RNGs should be

// it gets an independent IRNG (the IRNG state is encapsulated
