How do I generate maxwellMaxwell-boltzmannBoltzmann variates using a uniform distribution random number generator?

I am doing a molecular dynamics simulation. I need to assign initial velocities to the atoms. I want to assign the initial velocities which follow the maxwellMaxwell-boltzmannBoltzmann distribution. How do I calculate such initial velocities using a uniform random number generator with range [0,1).?
