Pseudorandom number generators

Mersenne Twister

The Mersenne Twister is a general-purpose pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) developed in 1997 by (松本 眞) and (西村 拓士). Its name derives from the fact that its period length is chosen to be a Mersenne prime. The Mersenne Twister was designed specifically to rectify most of the flaws found in older PRNGs. The most commonly used version of the Mersenne Twister algorithm is based on the Mersenne prime . The standard implementation of that, MT19937, uses a 32-bit word length. There is another implementation (with five variants) that uses a 64-bit word length, MT19937-64; it generates a different sequence. (Wikipedia).

Sampling from a FINITE Population and the Mersenne Twister (11-2)

A population is finite if it is possible to count all its elements. The sampling method for a finite population is a simple random sample. We can use the RAND() function in Excel to select a sample from a finite population. The Mersenne Twister is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) use

Perfect Numbers and Mersenne Primes

Perfect numbers and Mersenne primes might seem like unrelated branches of math, but work by Euclid and Euler over 2000 years apart showed they are so deeply connected that a one-to-one correspondence exists between the even perfect numbers and the Mersenne primes. The existence of odd perf
