  2. Wichmann–Hill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wichmann–Hill

    Wichmann–Hill is a pseudorandom number generator proposed in 1982 by Brian Wichmann and David Hill. [1] It consists of three linear congruential generators with different prime moduli, each of which is used to produce a uniformly distributed number between 0 and 1. These are summed, modulo 1, to produce the result. [2]

  3. geo URI scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_URI_scheme

    It is a sum of random variables. There is no simplification hypothesis defined to reduce it to a one-variable model. Imagining the location of an ant colony to illustrate: the colony is a 3D object at the (exactly) the Terrain surface, so at precise altitude (approximated to a zero uncertainty measure).

  4. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

    The second row is the same generator with a seed of 3, which produces a cycle of length 2. 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.

    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.

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

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

    A linear congruential generator with base b = 2 32 is implemented as + = (+) , where c is a constant. If a ≡ 1 (mod 4) and c is odd, the resulting base-2 32 congruential sequence will have period 2 32.

  7. Gillham code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillham_Code

    The transponder gets its altitude information from an encoding altimeter mounted behind the instrument panel that communicates via the Gillham code. Gillham code is a zero-padded 12-bit binary code using a parallel nine- [ 1 ] to eleven-wire interface , [ 2 ] the Gillham interface , that is used to transmit uncorrected barometric altitude ...

  8. Mode C veil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_C_veil

    Mode C veil refers to a kind of airspace which currently surrounds all primary Class B airports within the United States.This airspace extends horizontally to a circle of 30 NM radius centered on the airport, and extends vertically from the surface up to 10,000 feet MSL. [1]

  9. Scenery generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scenery_generator

    A scenery generator is software used to create landscape images, 3D models, and animations. These programs often use procedural generation to generate the landscapes. If not using procedural generation to create the landscapes, then normally a 3D artist would render and create the landscapes. These programs are often used in video games or movies.
