=={{header|Sparkling}}==
Sparkling uses the built-in PRNG of whichever C library implementation the interpreter is compiled against. The Sparkling library functions <tt>random()</tt> and <tt>seed()</tt> map directly to the C standard library functions <tt>rand()</tt> and <tt>srand()</tt> with only one small difference: the return value of <tt>rand()</tt> is divided by <tt>RAND_MAX</tt> so that the generated number is between 0 and 1.
=={{header|Stata}}==
See '''[http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?set%20rng set rng]''' in Stata help. Stata uses the '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne_Twister Mersenne Twister]''' RNG by default, and may use the 32-bit '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_(algorithm) KISS]''' RNG for compatibility with versions earlier than Stata 14.
