2. Mersenne Twister - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne_Twister

   Mersenne Twister. The Mersenne Twister is a general-purpose pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) developed in 1997 by Makoto Matsumoto (松本 眞) and Takuji Nishimura (西村 拓士). [1] [2] Its name derives from the choice of a Mersenne prime as its period length.

3. Fortuna (PRNG) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortuna_(PRNG)

   Fortuna is a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator (CS-PRNG) devised by Bruce Schneier and Niels Ferguson and published in 2003. It is named after Fortuna, the Roman goddess of chance. FreeBSD uses Fortuna for /dev/random and /dev/urandom is symbolically linked to it since FreeBSD 11. [1] Apple OSes have switched to Fortuna ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random.org

   Random.org (stylized as RANDOM.ORG) is a website that produces random numbers based on atmospheric noise. In addition to generating random numbers in a specified range and subject to a specified probability distribution , which is the most commonly done activity on the site, it has free tools to simulate events such as flipping coins, shuffling ...

   A Nintendo Switch console with Joy-Con. This is a list of video games for the Nintendo Switch video game console that have sold or shipped at least one million copies. As Nintendo shares the sales of their video games every quarter while most other publishers do not share sales figures per console, this list consists mostly of Nintendo-published titles.

6. Lavarand - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavarand

   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 pseudorandom number generator. [1]

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

   The ACORN or ″ A dditive Co ngruential R andom N umber″ 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. Introduced by R.S.Wikramaratna, [1] ACORN was originally designed for use in ...

9. Pseudorandom number generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_number_generator

   A pseudorandom number generator ( PRNG ), also known as a deterministic random bit generator ( DRBG ), [1] is an algorithm for generating a sequence of numbers whose properties approximate the properties of sequences of random numbers. The PRNG-generated sequence is not truly random, because it is completely determined by an initial value ...
