Chapter: Information on the Pseudorandom number generator

The Randomness extension creates a pseudorandom number generator kind, which has a few properties in it:

    the previous value - the latest calculated random number
    the multiplier - the multiplier used to create random numbers
    the adder - the adder used to create random numbers

The pseudorandom number generator of the Randomness extension is of the most basic kind, utilizing the formula SEED = (SEED * MULT) + ADD to generate random numbers.
