Is 161803398 A ‘Special’ Number? Inside of Math.Random()

No, but it’s based on Phi (the “golden ratio”).

161803398 = 1.61803398 * 10^8 ≈ φ * 10^8

More about the golden ratio here.

And a really good read for the casual mathematician here.

And I found a research paper on random number generators that agrees with this assertion. (See page 53.)
