NPG: New Random Generator, 3x Faster & Stronger than PCG64
The NumPy library in Python, and many other systems, relied on the Mersenne Twister PRNG (pseudo-random number generator) for a long time. It was slow and did not mimic randomness well enough, failing some statistical tests. In addition, it could be cracked, raising security issues. It was replaced recently by PCG64 which addresses some of […]
