2. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

   Using a = 4 and c = 1 (bottom row) gives a cycle length of 9 with any seed in [0, 8]. A linear congruential generator (LCG) is an algorithm that yields a sequence of pseudo-randomized numbers calculated with a discontinuous piecewise linear equation. The method represents one of the oldest and best-known pseudorandom number generator algorithms.

3. Multiply-with-carry pseudorandom number generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiply-with-carry...

   Multiply-with-carry pseudorandom number generator. In computer science, multiply-with-carry (MWC) is a method invented by George Marsaglia [1] for generating sequences of random integers based on an initial set from two to many thousands of randomly chosen seed values.

4. Multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_algorithm

   A multiplication algorithm is an algorithm (or method) to multiply two numbers. Depending on the size of the numbers, different algorithms are more efficient than others. Numerous algorithms are known and there has been much research into the topic. The oldest and simplest method, known since antiquity as long multiplication or grade-school ...

5. Lehmer random number generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lehmer_random_number_generator

   The Lehmer random number generator[1] (named after D. H. Lehmer), sometimes also referred to as the Park–Miller random number generator (after Stephen K. Park and Keith W. Miller), is a type of linear congruential generator (LCG) that operates in multiplicative group of integers modulo n. The general formula is.

6. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

   Parity (mathematics) Cuisenaire rods: 5 (yellow) cannot be evenly divided in 2 (red) by any 2 rods of the same color/length, while 6 (dark green) can be evenly divided in 2 by 3 (lime green). In mathematics, parity is the property of an integer of whether it is even or odd. An integer is even if it is divisible by 2, and odd if it is not. [1]

7. Rational number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_number

   In mathematics, a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction ⁠ ⁠ of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. [1] For example, ⁠ ⁠ is a rational number, as is every integer (for example, ). The set of all rational numbers, also referred to as " the rationals ", [2] the field of ...
