subroutine clarnv (idist, iseed, n, x)
CLARNV returns a vector of random numbers from a uniform or normal distribution.

CLARNV returns a vector of random numbers from a uniform or normal distribution.  

Purpose:

 CLARNV returns a vector of n random complex numbers from a uniform or
 normal distribution.

Parameters

IDIST

          IDIST is INTEGER
          Specifies the distribution of the random numbers:
          = 1:  real and imaginary parts each uniform (0,1)
          = 2:  real and imaginary parts each uniform (-1,1)
          = 3:  real and imaginary parts each normal (0,1)
          = 4:  uniformly distributed on the disc abs(z) < 1
          = 5:  uniformly distributed on the circle abs(z) = 1

ISEED

          ISEED is INTEGER array, dimension (4)
          On entry, the seed of the random number generator; the array
          elements must be between 0 and 4095, and ISEED(4) must be
          odd.
          On exit, the seed is updated.

N

          N is INTEGER
          The number of random numbers to be generated.

X

          X is COMPLEX array, dimension (N)
          The generated random numbers.

Further Details:

  This routine calls the auxiliary routine SLARUV to generate random
  real numbers from a uniform (0,1) distribution, in batches of up to
  128 using vectorisable code. The Box-Muller method is used to
  transform numbers from a uniform to a normal distribution.
