A Fortran 90 interface to random number generation

Abstract A Fortran 90 MODULE has been implemented which is used to replace the intrinsic random number generation subroutines RANDOM_NUMBER and RANDOM_SEED with a user-defined generator. It is shown how the new features of Fortran 90 can be used to define a set of user subroutines that behave as the intrinsic procedures do, and thus provide a convenient way to interface to arbitrary random number generators without the need to change the calls to the random number generator in the user program.
