    It was covered under the now-expired U.S. patent 5,732,138, titled "Method for seeding a pseudo-random number generator with a cryptographic hash of a digitization of a chaotic system." by Landon Curt Noll, Robert G. Mende, and Sanjeev Sisodiya. From 1997 to 2001, [2] there was a website at lavarand.sgi.com demonstrating the technique.

    Default generator in R and the Python language starting from version 2.3. Xorshift: 2003 G. Marsaglia [26] It is a very fast sub-type of LFSR generators. Marsaglia also suggested as an improvement the xorwow generator, in which the output of a xorshift generator is added with a Weyl sequence.

  5. Random number generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation

    Dice are an example of a mechanical hardware random number generator. When a cubical die is rolled, a random number from 1 to 6 is obtained. Random number generation is a process by which, often by means of a random number generator (RNG), a sequence of numbers or symbols that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance is generated.

    A USB-pluggable hardware true random number generator. In computing, a hardware random number generator (HRNG), true random number generator (TRNG), non-deterministic random bit generator (NRBG), [1] or physical random number generator [2] [3] is a device that generates random numbers from a physical process capable of producing entropy (in other words, the device always has access to a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_number_generator

    It can be shown that if is a pseudo-random number generator for the uniform distribution on (,) and if is the CDF of some given probability distribution , then is a pseudo-random number generator for , where : (,) is the percentile of , i.e. ():= {: ()}. Intuitively, an arbitrary distribution can be simulated from a simulation of the standard ...

    en.wikipedia.org/.../ACORN_(random_number_generator)

    In 1992, further results were published, [11] implementing the ACORN Pseudo-Random Number Generator in exact integer arithmetic which ensures reproducibility across different platforms and languages, and stating that for arbitrary real-precision arithmetic it is possible to prove convergence of the ACORN sequence to k-distributed as the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diehard_tests

    The diehard tests are a battery of statistical tests for measuring the quality of a random number generator (RNG). They were developed by George Marsaglia over several years and first published in 1995 on a CD-ROM of random numbers. [1] In 2006, the original diehard tests were extended into the dieharder tests.
