We definitely must remove some work from your shoulder, "all work and no play makes Jack..." :-D

Precisely :-)

That apart the use of rand(3) to generate random coefficients is suboptimal. The range is limited from 0 to RAND_MAX (2147483647 on ia32).

GMP supports the generation of arbitrary-size pseudo-random numbers. I would use those. Ciao,
