## Many random methods in the library are eventually based on the function
## <Ref Func="RandomList"/>.
## As <Ref Func="RandomList"/> is restricted to lists of <M>2^{28}</M>

## a fast algorithm rather than to produce high quality randomness for
## statistical purposes.

## If you implement your own

## that they initialize their seed to a defined value when they are loaded
## to permit to reproduce calculations even if they involved random
## elements.
