4# Perform primitive binning into 8-bit bins (take 8 bits of randomness
5# at a time) and see if the distribution is flat. The output should be
6# checked by eye - are all the numbers roughly the same?
7#
8# Redirect the output from this to a file - and make a cup of coffee while
9# it runs. This program is a CPU Hog!
