Summary: Simplify logic in random.py

Initial Comment:
Simplify the logic in several methods for better
readability, maintainability, and speed:

* while True --> while 1
* apply de'morgan's theorem to simplify compound
conditionals
* factor out repeated test:  (p>1.0) and (p <= 1.0)
* replace pow() with **
