* JVMRandom is a wrapper that supports all possible

*
* It does this to allow for a Random class in which the seed is
* shared between all members of the class - a better name would
* have been SharedSeedRandom.
*
* N.B. the current implementation overrides the methods
* {@link Random#nextInt(int)} and {@link Random#nextLong()}
* to produce positive numbers ranging from 0 (inclusive)
* to MAX_VALUE (exclusive).
