      DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION gennor(av,sd)
C**********************************************************************
C
C     DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION GENNOR( AV, SD )
C
C         GENerate random deviate from a NORmal distribution
C
C
C                              Function
C
C
C     Generates a single random deviate from a normal distribution
C     with mean, AV, and standard deviation, SD.
C
C
C                              Arguments
C
C
C     AV --> Mean of the normal distribution.
C                              DOUBLE PRECISION AV
C
C     SD --> Standard deviation of the normal distribution.
C                              DOUBLE PRECISION SD
C     JJV                      (SD >= 0)
C
C     GENNOR <-- Generated normal deviate.
C                              DOUBLE PRECISION GENNOR
C
C
C                              Method
C
C
C     Renames SNORM from TOMS as slightly modified by BWB to use RANF
C     instead of SUNIF.
