What I need is to generate a lot of random real numbers between 0 and
1, both inclusive (normally it's possible to generate the number
between 0(inclusive) and 1 (exclusive!!!) )
Multiply the number by 1+ulp where ulp in the smallest increment in a
double in the vicinity of 1.0
see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/ulp.html
In practice it makes so different since the odds of generating a
double bang on 1 is extremely remote.
