    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_random_number...

    List of random number generators. Random number generators are important in many kinds of technical applications, including physics, engineering or mathematical computer studies (e.g., Monte Carlo simulations), cryptography and gambling (on game servers ). This list includes many common types, regardless of quality or applicability to a given ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fictitious_telephone_number

    Fictitious numbers in (011x) and (01x1) area codes mostly end with the digits 496 0xxx, however Tyneside uses (0191) 498 0xxx. London uses 020 7946 0xxx; Cardiff uses 029 2018 0xxx; and Northern Ireland now uses 028 9649 6xxx after a previously reserved range was allocated for actual use.

  4. Random number generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation

    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. This means that the particular outcome sequence will contain some patterns detectable in hindsight but impossible to foresee.

  5. Mersenne Twister - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne_Twister

    CryptMT is a stream cipher and cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator which uses Mersenne Twister internally. It was developed by Matsumoto and Nishimura alongside Mariko Hagita and Mutsuo Saito. It has been submitted to the eSTREAM project of the eCRYPT network.

  6. Counter-based random number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-based_random...

    A counter-based random number generation (CBRNG, also known as a counter-based pseudo-random number generator, or CBPRNG) is a kind of pseudorandom number generator that uses only an integer counter as its internal state. They are generally used for generating pseudorandom numbers for large parallel computations.

  7. Hardware random number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_random_number...

    In computing, a hardware random number generator (HRNG), true random number generator (TRNG), non-deterministic random bit generator (NRBG), or physical random number generator 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 physical entropy source ...

  8. Applications of randomness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_randomness

    If one has a pseudo-random number generator whose output is "sufficiently difficult" to predict, one can generate true random numbers to use as the initial value (i.e., the seed), and then use the pseudo-random number generator to produce numbers for use in cryptographic applications.

  9. Lavarand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavarand

    Lavarand. A wall of lava lamps at the offices of Cloudflare. Lavarand, also known as the Wall of Entropy, was a hardware random number generator designed by Silicon Graphics that worked by taking pictures of the patterns made by the floating material in lava lamps, extracting random data from the pictures, and using the result to seed a ...

    Calling formats. To call in Ivory Coast, the following format is used: yy xx xx xx xx - calls within Ivory Coast. +225 27 xx xx xx xx calls from outside Ivory Coast to a landline. +225 01 xx xx xx xx / +225 05 xx xx xx xx / +225 07 xx xx xx xx / +225 25 xx xx xx xx calls from outside Ivory Coast to a mobile number.

  11. ACORN (random number generator) - Wikipedia

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

    The ACORN or ″Additive Congruential Random Number″ generators are a robust family of pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs) for sequences of uniformly distributed pseudo-random numbers, introduced in 1989 and still valid in 2019, thirty years later.
