tilviljunarkenndir
Tilviljunarkenndir are mechanisms that generate sequences of numbers that are intended to appear random. They are used in statistics, computer simulations, gaming, and cryptography to produce unpredictable values or to seed other processes.
They fall into two broad categories: true random number generators (TRNGs), which derive randomness from physical
Cryptographically secure tilviljunarkenndir (CSPRNGs) are a subset of PRNGs designed to limit predictability even if part
Key properties include uniform distribution, independence, and long period for PRNGs, and high entropy for TRNGs.
Applications span Monte Carlo simulations, statistical sampling, gaming, and cryptography. In practice, TRNGs are often used
