number generator
Creates numerical output
A number generator is a system or algorithm that produces numbers, typically in a sequence or at random.
In computing, random number generators create unpredictable values for games, cryptography, simulations, and statistical sampling.
The lottery uses a certified number generator to pick winning numbers.
Pseudorandom generators use mathematical formulas to simulate randomness, while true random generators derive values from physical phenomena like atmospheric noise.
