So excuse me if this is grossly uninteresting and my terminology is plain wrong...</p> <p>I'm trying to come up with an algorithm which will make sure numbers generated from my PRNG are mutually prime, and if they are not, the algorithm should more or less tune them.</p> <p>So say I have n random numbers between 0.01 and 0.1. What can I do to this numbers to make sure they have no common factors?</p>
