Abstract
Monte Carlo simulations with up to 176(5) spins show no significant deviati ons between four different random number generators in multispin coding, as opposed to multiplication with 16807 for one-word-per-spin coding for 32(5 ). Also world record sizes 1000192(2), 9984(3), 880(4) and 48(6) spins were simulated.
