Abstract: Random number generation is essential for applications in simulation, numerical analysis, and data encryption. The ubiquitous presence of system-on-chip (SoC) field-programmable gate array ...

According to Andrej Karpathy on Twitter, the Python random.seed() function produces identical random number generator (RNG) streams when seeded with positive and negative integers of the same ...

Researchers have developed a chip-based quantum random number generator that provides high-speed, high-quality operation on a miniaturized platform. This advance could help move quantum random number ...

We currently generate random array data with numpy which means we cannot test for cases where numpy is not present. We want a random array generator depending only on pyarrow and Python standard ...

The Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol is a new standard by Google that enables AI agents—regardless of their underlying framework or developer—to communicate and collaborate seamlessly. It works by using ...
