  2. Blum Blum Shub - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blum_Blum_Shub

    Blum Blum Shub takes the form + =, where M = pq is the product of two large primes p and q.At each step of the algorithm, some output is derived from x n+1; the output is commonly either the bit parity of x n+1 or one or more of the least significant bits of x n+1.

    Random Cycle Bit Generator (RCB) 2016 R. Cookman [35] RCB is described as a bit pattern generator made to overcome some of the shortcomings with Mersenne Twister and short periods/bit length restriction of shift/modulo generators. Middle-Square Weyl Sequence RNG (see also middle-square method) 2017 B. Widynski [36] [37]

  4. Random walk - Wikipedia

    The average number of steps it performs is r 2. [citation needed] This fact is the discrete version of the fact that a Wiener process walk is a fractal of Hausdorff dimension 2. [citation needed] In two dimensions, the average number of points the same random walk has on the boundary of its trajectory is r 4/3.

  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 is generated that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance.

    Varying seed linearly generates numbers that generate a linear sequence on the same page, with equal cyclic steps; Varying prime (provided that they are odd prime numbers) generates pseudo-random that have independent random distribution.

  7. Middle-square method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle-square_method

    To generate a sequence of n-digit pseudorandom numbers, an n-digit starting value is created and squared, producing a 2n-digit number. If the result has fewer than 2n digits, leading zeroes are added to compensate. The middle n digits of the result would be the next number in the sequence and returned as the result. This process is then ...

    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 ...

    Otherwise, choose new random numbers and go back to step 1. Step 1 amounts to choosing a low-resolution y coordinate. Step 3 tests if the x coordinate is clearly within the desired density function without knowing more about the y coordinate. If it is not, step 4 chooses a high-resolution y coordinate, and step 5 does the rejection test.
