/**
* This program can be run from ns3 such as
* `./ns3 run sample-random-variable`
*
* This program is about as simple as possible to display the use of ns-3
* to generate random numbers. By default, the uniform random variate that
* will be outputted is 0.816532. Because ns-3 uses a fixed seed for the
* pseudo-random number generator, this program should always output the
* same number. Likewise, ns-3 simulations using random variables will
* behave deterministically unless the user changes the Run number or the
* Seed.
*
* There are three primary mechanisms to change the seed or run numbers
* from their default integer value of 1:
*
* 1. Through explicit call of SeedManager::SetSeed () and
* SeedManager::SetRun () (commented out below)
* 2. Through the passing of command line arguments such as:
* ./ns3 run program-name --command-template="%s --RngRun=<value>"`
* 3. Through the use of the NS_GLOBAL_VALUE environment variable, such as:
* `$ NS_GLOBAL_VALUE="RngRun=<value>" ./ns3 run program-name`
*
* For instance, setting the run number to 3 will change the program output to
* 0.775417
*
* Consult the ns-3 manual for more information about the use of the
* random number generator
