ISBN: 9780366866168 - generation and testing of pseudo-random numbers (classic reprint) (1 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book documents and analyzes the creation and testing of pseudo random numbers using arithmetical processes on digital computers. It begins with an explanation of pseudo random numbers and their uses in the present day. The author then provides an in-depth examination of the mid square method, discusses the advantages and disadvantages of various multiplicative methods, and presents a detailed analysis of additive methods, which use addition instead of multiplication to generate random numbers. The author draws on examples to illustrate and compare the different methods, offering insights into their behavior and limitations. The book concludes with a discussion of algebraic and transcendental numbers as sources of random sequences and notes the emerging use of pseudo random permutations in solving computational problems. By providing a comprehensive examination of the generation and testing of pseudo random numbers, this book serves as a valuable resource for computer scientists, statisticians, and researchers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
