Military-grade Fast Random Number Generator Based on Quadratic Irrationals

This article is an extract from my book “Synthetic Data and Generative AI”, available here. There are very few serious articles in the literature dealing with digits of irrational numbers to build a pseudo-random number generator (PRNG). It seems that this idea was abandoned long ago due to the computational complexity and the misconception that such […]
