Thank you. Harmut Wolf also pointed me to an article in the group archive which I had missed. http://library.wolfram.com/mathgroup/archive/2000/May/msg00088.html My reading of that is that the CA generator passes the tests I mentioned, and that one could force the use of that particular generator by using something like r = Random[Real,{0,1},10000]; integerForBits=Floor[10000*r]; with integerForBits now providing the appropriate supply. -- Mark R.
