Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relatively slow speed and small word size of the current crop of micro-computers causes the efficient production of pseudo-random numbers on these machines to be considerably more difficult than on larger computers. As a consequence, some micro-computer-based algorithms are excessivly time consuming, while other algorithms trade off speed against 'randomness'. To alleviate this problem we present in this paper several families of pseudo random number generators explicitly designed for use on micro-computer environment, others are new or lesser known algorihtms designed to overcome some of the restrictions intrinsic to the micro-computer's 8 bit environment. For each generator the basic algorithm is discussed and a Pascal implementation is presented. Values of coefficients leading to pseudo random number streams with good statistical properties are recommended and an empirical evaluation of the computational efficiency of the Pascal procedures is offered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An assembly language subroutine that uses a shifting mask to generate pseudo-random numbers has been written for use with Apple II microcomputer Pascal. The routine is nearly 80 times faster than a direct Pascal multiplicative congruence scheme. With the recommended starting parameters, the resulting stream has passed 10 different statistical tests for density and randomness. An efficient extension to the normal distribution is also presented. (Author).

Download or read book Random Number Generators Principles and Practices written by David Johnston and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Random Number Generators, Principles and Practices has been written for programmers, hardware engineers, and sophisticated hobbyists interested in understanding random numbers generators and gaining the tools necessary to work with random number generators with confidence and knowledge. Using an approach that employs clear diagrams and running code examples rather than excessive mathematics, random number related topics such as entropy estimation, entropy extraction, entropy sources, PRNGs, randomness testing, distribution generation, and many others are exposed and demystified. If you have ever Wondered how to test if data is really random Needed to measure the randomness of data in real time as it is generated Wondered how to get randomness into your programs Wondered whether or not a random number generator is trustworthy Wanted to be able to choose between random number generator solutions Needed to turn uniform random data into a different distribution Needed to ensure the random numbers from your computer will work for your cryptographic application Wanted to combine more than one random number generator to increase reliability or security Wanted to get random numbers in a floating point format Needed to verify that a random number generator meets the requirements of a published standard like SP800-90 or AIS 31 Needed to choose between an LCG, PCG or XorShift algorithm Then this might be the book for you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers pseudorandom number generation algorithms, evaluation techniques, and offers practical advice and code examples. Random Numbers and Computers is an essential introduction or refresher on pseudorandom numbers in computer science. The first comprehensive book on the topic, readers are provided with a practical introduction to the techniques of pseudorandom number generation, including how the algorithms work and how to test the output to decide if it is suitable for a particular purpose. Practical applications are demonstrated with hands-on presentation and descriptions that readers can apply directly to their own work. Examples are in C and Python and given with an emphasis on understanding the algorithms to the point of practical application. The examples are meant to be implemented, experimented with and improved/adapted by the reader.

Download or read book A Celebration of Statistics written by Anthony C. Atkinson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Statistical Institute was founded in 1885 and is therefore one of the world's oldest international scientific societies. The field of statistics is still expanding rapidly and possesses a rich variety of applications in many areas of human activity such as science, government, business, industry, and everyday affairs. In consequence, the celebration of the Institute's centenary in 1985 is of considerable interest not only to statisticians but also more widely to the international scientific community. As part of its centennial celebration planning the Institute decided to publish a volume of papers representing the immensely wide range of interests encompassed by statistics in its international context, viewed both from a historical and from a contemporary standpoint. We were fortunate in securing the services of Anthony Atkinson and Stephen Fienberg as Editors of this volume: they have worked hard over a period of several years to put together a most fascinating collection of papers. On behalf of the Institute it is my pleasant duty to thank them and the authors for their contributions. J. DURBIN, President International Statistical Institute Preface The papers in this volume were prepared to help celebrate the centenary of the International Statistical Institute. During the lSI's first 100 years statistics has matured, both as a scientific discipline and as a profession, in ways that the lSI's founders could not possibly have imagined.
