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 that approximates the properties of random numbers. The sequence is not truly random in… … Wikipedia
Cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator — A cryptographically secure pseudo random number generator (CSPRNG) is a pseudo random number generator (PRNG) with properties that make it suitable for use in cryptography. Many aspects of cryptography require random numbers, for example: Key… … Wikipedia
CryptGenRandom — is a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator function that is included in Microsoft s Cryptographic Application Programming Interface. In Win32 programs, Microsoft recommends its use anywhere random number generation is needed. A… … Wikipedia
Information theory — Not to be confused with Information science. Information theory is a branch of applied mathematics and electrical engineering involving the quantification of information. Information theory was developed by Claude E. Shannon to find fundamental… … Wikipedia
Pseudorandomness — A pseudorandom process is a process that appears random but is not. Pseudorandom sequences typically exhibit statistical randomness while being generated by an entirely deterministic causal process. Such a process is easier to produce than a… … Wikipedia
Hardware random number generator — This SSL Accelerator computer card uses a hardware random number generator to generate cryptographic keys to encrypt data sent over computer networks. In computing, a hardware random number generator is an apparatus that generates random numbers… … Wikipedia
/dev/random — In Unix like operating systems, /dev/random is a special file that serves as a random number generator or as a pseudorandom number generator. It allows access to environmental noise collected from device drivers and other sources.[citation… … Wikipedia
Fisher-Yates shuffle — The Fisher Yates shuffle, named after Ronald Fisher and Frank Yates, also known as the Knuth shuffle, after Donald Knuth, is an algorithm for generating a random permutation of a finite set in plain terms, for randomly shuffling the set. A… … Wikipedia
Cryptographic hash function — A cryptographic hash function (specifically, SHA 1) at work. Note that even small changes in the source input (here in the word over ) drastically change the resulting output, by the so called avalanche effect. A cryptographic hash function is a… … Wikipedia
Randomness — Random redirects here. For other uses, see Random (disambiguation). For a random Wikipedia article, see Special:Random. For information about Wikipedia s random article feature, see Wikipedia:Random. Randomness has somewhat differing meanings as… … Wikipedia
