Mersenne Twister Implementations

What is the Mersenne Twister algorithm? The Mersenne Twister is a very fast random number generator. The home page that I retreived this information from warns of the following: “Mersenne Twister is basically for Monte-Carlo simulations – it is not cryptographically secure ‘as is’.”. If you read the FAQ, however, there are comments on newer versions and implementation details for specific usage case scenarios.

At any rate, the implementations may be found here.
Interestingly enough there is a javascript version that will most likely find it’s way into our demos.
