Yes, but does this mean that the generator, for a given seed, produces
random numbers inside [0, 2^32) ?

 For instance, if I want to implement a probabilistic algorithm where it
performs some actions with probability 50%, and some others with the same
probability; then does it suffice to check the random generated number with
(2^32)/2?


Thnx in advance
Marios
