Hello,

I presume that you sometimes call random with min = max ?

Well, that's not my intention, but I can't assert that it didn't happen in this case - there are some data-dependent invocations of the random number generator. I would have thought that the generator would return 0 for rng(1). Thanks, Matt.

algorithm?

Thanks, Matt.
