'math.rand()' uses higher bits to produce float value
The call 'math.rand()' converts the higher bits of the internal unsigned
integer random to a float, instead of its lower bits. That ensures that
Lua compiled with different float precisions always generates equal (up
to the available precision) random numbers when given the same seed.
