31 *
32 * $Log: limlee.h,v $
33 * Revision 1.4 2001/02/03 11:59:07 mdw
34 * Don't use the @pgen@ random number generator for generating primes: it's
35 * only for testing them. Use a caller-supplied one instead.
36 *
37 * Revision 1.3 2000/12/06 20:33:27 mdw
38 * Make flags be macros rather than enumerations, to ensure that they're
39 * unsigned.
40 *
41 * Revision 1.2 2000/08/18 19:16:51 mdw
42 * New stepper interface for constructing Lim-Lee primes.
43 *
44 * Revision 1.1 2000/07/09 21:30:58 mdw
45 * Lim-Lee prime generation.
