Lance Norskog commented on MAHOUT-753:
--------------------------------------

There are time-tested (like us!) test suites for the metaphysically ineffable 
quality known as randomness, from NIST and something called ENT. If I really 
want to go after this, I would do a web site where you upload a pile-o-bits and 
it runs all the tests.

Anyone who considers arithmetical methods of producing random digits is, of 
course, [in the state of
