  2. Lagged Fibonacci generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagged_Fibonacci_generator

    A Lagged Fibonacci generator (LFG or sometimes LFib) is an example of a pseudorandom number generator. This class of random number generator is aimed at being an improvement on the 'standard' linear congruential generator. These are based on a generalisation of the Fibonacci sequence. The Fibonacci sequence may be described by the recurrence ...

    A modification of Lagged-Fibonacci generators. Subtract-with-borrow (SWB) 1991 G. Marsaglia and A. Zaman [18] A modification of Lagged-Fibonacci generators. A SWB generator is the basis for the RANLUX generator, [19] widely used e.g. for particle physics simulations. Maximally periodic reciprocals: 1992 R. A. J. Matthews [20]

    The n-Fibonacci constant is the ratio toward which adjacent -Fibonacci numbers tend; it is also called the n th metallic mean, and it is the only positive root of =. For example, the case of n = 1 {\displaystyle n=1} is 1 + 5 2 {\displaystyle {\frac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}} , or the golden ratio , and the case of n = 2 {\displaystyle n=2} is 1 + 2 ...

  6. 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.

  7. Greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm_for...

    In mathematics, the greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions is a greedy algorithm, first described by Fibonacci, for transforming rational numbers into Egyptian fractions. An Egyptian fraction is a representation of an irreducible fraction as a sum of distinct unit fractions , such as ⁠ 5 / 6 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ .

  8. Generator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(computer...

    In computer science, a generator is a routine that can be used to control the iteration behaviour of a loop.All generators are also iterators. [1] A generator is very similar to a function that returns an array, in that a generator has parameters, can be called, and generates a sequence of values.

  9. Fibonacci coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_coding

    If the number subtracted was the i th Fibonacci number F(i), put a 1 in place i − 2 in the code word (counting the left most digit as place 0). Repeat the previous steps, substituting the remainder for N, until a remainder of 0 is reached. Place an additional 1 after the rightmost digit in the code word.
