Remarks
Use RandomWordGenerator as the base class for pseudo-random number generator classes that produce _random data in chunks of 32-bit words. RandomWordGenerator overrides most of Random's members to use the values produced by the derived class.
RandomWordGenerator is an abstract base class that cannot be instantiated.
Notes to inheritors If you inherit from this class, you must override the following member: GenerateNextWord().
