A quick point of order here: arguing with Duncan in this forum is helpful to expose ideas, but probably neither side will convince the other; eventually, if you want this adopted in core R, you'll need to convince an R-core member to pursue this fix. In the meantime, a good, well-tested implementation in a user-contributed package (presumably written in C for speed) would be enormously

...re, the unbiased "algorithm 3" in https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.10941 is part already of the C standard library in OpenBSD and macOS (as arc4random_uniform), and in the GNU standard library. Lemire also provides C++ code in the appendix of his piece for both this and the faster "nearly divisionless" algorithm. It would be excellent if any R core members were interested in considering bindings to these algorithms as a patch, or might express expectations for how that patch would have to operate (e.g. re Duncan's comment about non-integer arguments to sample size). Otherwise, an R pa...
