April 26, 2005 Pi seems a good random number generator – but not always the best WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – If you wanted a random number, historically you could do worse than to pick a sequence from the ...

According to this post on the official V8 Javascript blog, the pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) that V8 Javascript uses in Math.random() is horribly flawed and getting replaced with something … ...

Many processes for producing these keys — such as the random number generator that's probably on your computer right now — use an algorithm that spits out a seemingly arbitrary string of numbers.

The world’s first practical quantum random number generator (QRNG) will reportedly overcome weaknesses of current encryption, revolutionizing internet security.

Nevertheless, computers need random numbers for so many applications that engineers have developed incredibly sophisticated ways for obtaining what are called “pseudo-random” numbers: numbers ...
