* A stream of pseudo-random numbers generated using the xorshift+ technique
* described here:
*
* Vigna, Sebastiano (2014). "Further scramblings of Marsaglia's xorshift
* generators". arXiv:1404.0390 (http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.0390)
*
* That paper says:
*
* In particular, we propose a tightly coded xorshift128+ generator that
* does not fail systematically any test from the BigCrush suite of TestU01
* (even reversed) and generates 64 pseudorandom bits in 1.10 ns on an
* Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @3.40GHz (Haswell). It is the fastest
* generator we are aware of with such empirical statistical properties.
*
* The stream of numbers produced by this method repeats every 2**128 - 1 calls
* (i.e. never, for all practical purposes). Zero appears 2**64 - 1 times in
* this period; all other numbers appear 2**64 times. Additionally, each *bit*
* in the produced numbers repeats every 2**128 - 1 calls.
*
* This generator is not suitable as a cryptographically secure random number
* generator.
