  2. Randomness extractor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randomness_extractor

    A randomness extractor, often simply called an "extractor", is a function, which being applied to output from a weak entropy source, together with a short, uniformly random seed, generates a highly random output that appears independent from the source and uniformly distributed.

  3. 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 ...

  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.

  6. Data extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_extraction

    Data extraction. Data extraction is the act or process of retrieving data out of (usually unstructured or poorly structured) data sources for further data processing or data storage ( data migration ). The import into the intermediate extracting system is thus usually followed by data transformation and possibly the addition of metadata prior ...

    Extractor (mathematics) An - extractor is a bipartite graph with nodes on the left and nodes on the right such that each node on the left has neighbors (on the right), which has the added property that for any subset of the left vertices of size at least , the distribution on right vertices obtained by choosing a random node in and then ...

  8. Self-extracting archive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-extracting_archive

    A self-extracting archive ( SFX or SEA) is a computer executable program which combines compressed data in an archive file with machine-executable code to extract the information. Running on a compatible operating system, it does not need a suitable extractor in the target computer to extract the data [citation needed].

  9. nth root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth_root

    An nth root of a number x, where n is a positive integer, is any of the n real or complex numbers r whose n th power is x : Every positive real number x has a single positive n th root, called the principal n th root, which is written . For n equal to 2 this is called the principal square root and the n is omitted.

  10. ALZip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALZip

    ALZip is an archive and compression utility software application from ESTsoft for Microsoft Windows that can unzip 40 different zip file archives. ALZip can zip files into eight different archive formats such as ZIP, EGG, TAR, and others. Introduced in ALZip version 8, the EGG archive format can be used, which supports Unicode and other features.

    Both a comma and a period (or full-stop) are generally accepted decimal separators for international use. Three ways to group the number ten thousand with digit group separators. 1) Space, the internationally recommended thousands separator. 2) Period (or full stop), the thousands separator used in many non-English speaking countries.
