With the linear congruential algorithm, a choice of parameters that provides a full
period does not necessarily provide a good randomization. For example, consider the
following two generators:
Xn+1 = (11Xn) mod 13
Xn+1 = (2Xn) mod 13
Write out the two sequences to show that both are full period. Which one appears
more random to you?
