  2. Wordle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wordle

    Mode (s) Single-player. Wordle is a web-based word game created and developed by Welsh software engineer Josh Wardle. Players have six attempts to guess a five-letter word, with feedback given for each guess in the form of coloured tiles indicating when letters match or occupy the correct position. Wordle has a single daily solution, with all ...

  3. Random number generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation

    Random number generation is a process by which, often by means of a random number generator ( RNG ), a sequence of numbers or symbols that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance is generated. This means that the particular outcome sequence will contain some patterns detectable in hindsight but impossible to foresee.

  4. Markov chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain

    v. t. e. A Markov chain or Markov process is a stochastic model describing a sequence of possible events in which the probability of each event depends only on the state attained in the previous event. Informally, this may be thought of as, "What happens next depends only on the state of affairs now ."

  5. Pseudorandom number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_number_generator

    A pseudorandom number generator ( PRNG ), also known as a deterministic random bit generator ( DRBG ), [1] is an algorithm for generating a sequence of numbers whose properties approximate the properties of sequences of random numbers. The PRNG-generated sequence is not truly random, because it is completely determined by an initial value ...

  6. Randomness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randomness

    v. t. e. A pseudorandomly generated bitmap. In common usage, randomness is the apparent or actual lack of definite pattern or predictability in information. [1] [2] A random sequence of events, symbols or steps often has no order and does not follow an intelligible pattern or combination. Individual random events are, by definition ...

  7. Function generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_generator

    Function generator. In electrical engineering, a function generator is usually a piece of electronic test equipment or software used to generate different types of electrical waveforms over a wide range of frequencies. Some of the most common waveforms produced by the function generator are the sine wave, square wave, triangular wave and ...

  8. Pseudoword - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudoword

    Pseudoword. A pseudoword is a unit of speech or text that appears to be an actual word in a certain language, while in fact it has no meaning. It is a specific type of nonce word, or even more narrowly a nonsense word, composed of a combination of phonemes which nevertheless conform to the language's phonotactic rules. [1] It is thus a kind of ...

  9. Random seed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_seed

    A random seed (or seed state, or just seed) is a number (or vector) used to initialize a pseudorandom number generator . For a seed to be used in a pseudorandom number generator, it does not need to be random. Because of the nature of number generating algorithms, so long as the original seed is ignored, the rest of the values that the ...
