 online @ http://www.library.cornell.edu/nr/bookcpdf/c7-1.pdf" we see it
 must be "inextp = 31" because "the constant 31 is special; see Knuth".
 
 Although I don't know why it's needed a 31 instead of a 21 I don't see any
 reason to change the number. Maybe the Random class mus be reviewed by its
 author to check it hasn't any more subtle "bugs".
