Abstract

The nonlinear congruential method is an attractive alternative to the classical linear congruential method for pseudorandom number generation. In this paper we present a new type of discrepancy bound for sequences of s-tuples of successive nonlinear congruential pseudorandom numbers over a ring of integers ℤ M .
