it says:

"These are the RNG constructors. The first form sets the state to some pre-defined value, equal to 2**32-1 in the current implementation. The second form sets the state to the specified value. If you passed state=0 , the constructor uses the above default value instead to avoid the singular random number sequence, consisting of all zeros."

what is this statement, "2*32-1", referring to? Should it be 232-1, or does ** have some signigicance in c++.
