+feedback shift register (SF-Mersenne Twister algorithm and WELL
+generators)

+@item quasi random generators, such as the Torus algorithm, the Sobol
+sequence, the Halton sequence (including the Van der Corput sequence), and
+
+@item some generator tests: the gap test, the serial test, the poker test.
