Supose both r1 and r2 are pseudo random numbers in the range [0,1<<15)
(the normal rand() range), then (((long)r1)<<15)|r2 is a random number in the
range [0,1<<30). Is that large enough for you?

kind regards,

Thank you very much. Can u show me how to imply into my program because i'm a beginner of C programming?This is part of my program:
#define RANDOMIZE() srand((unsigned int)time(NULL))
#define RANDOM(x) (rand()%(x))

void histogram()}
int i,j,k,r;
int cnt;
int rnd;
int setrandom();
:
:
for(r=0;r<NN;r++){
AA[r] = 0;
}
cnt = 0;
L1:; //loop
rnd = RANDOM(NN); //NN=54756
if(AA[rnd] == 0){
cnt++;
printf("cnt=%d",cnt);}
