Until more is known about implementations of 'split', all we require is that 'split' deliver generators that are (a) not identical and (b) independently robust in the sense just given. The 'Show' and 'Read' instances of 'StdGen' provide a primitive way to save the state of a random number generator. It is required that @'read' ('show' g) == g@. In addition, 'reads' may be used to map an arbitrary string (not necessarily one produced by 'show') onto a value of type 'StdGen'.
