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
