Abstract

Pseudo-random numbers are widely used in Operations Research and applied mathema tics. With the growth in power of computers and languages, there is some tendency to use lower-significant bits within the pseudo- random number. Theoretical and empirical tests have not been sufficient to assess the randomness of these low-order bits. We show here for two generators that the low- order bits can be empirically tested, after first undertaking a bit-level transformation of the numbers.
