It is understanding the non-trivial statistical properties (even at a simple conceptual level) that is of paramount importance. PRNG is one of the most difficult subjects in Numerical Computation and has nothing whatever to do with any language/package/library etc.

Even today, caution is sometimes required, as illustrated by the following warning in the International Encyclopedia of Statistical Science (2010).

The list of widely used generators that should be discarded is much longer [than the list of good generators]. Do not trust blindly the software vendors. Check the default RNG of your favorite software and be ready to replace it if needed. This last recommendation has been made over and over again over the past 40 years. Perhaps amazingly, it remains as relevant today as it was 40 years ago.
