From jury duty to tax audits, randomness plays a big role. Scientists used quantum physics to build a system that ensures those number draws can’t be gamed.

Very little in this life is truly random. A coin flip is influenced by the flipper’s force, its surrounding airflow, and ...

Scientists have built the first ever traceable and certifiable random number generator that uses quantum entanglement.

A PyPI package is not yet available. Just download and extract the zip package offered here. The zip package also includes some example files (as plain Python files and as Jupyter notebooks) ...

The CBSE Class 12 Computer Science Syllabus for 2025-26 provides a clear roadmap for students preparing for their 2026 board ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new type of True Random Number Generator (TRNG) based on jitter and metastability implemented in the latest family of Xilinx FPGA devices. The source of randomness is ...

Abstract: An ultra-fast true random number generator (TRNG) based on ill-posedness nucleation of skyrmion bags (sk-bags) with high topological charge (Q) is proposed and studied via numerical method.

In this study, two-dimensional electronic fingerprinting was demonstrated and integrated into a memristive true random number generator (TRNG). For the device function of the TRNG, two modes of ...

Summary: Random numbers help us secure everything from bank accounts to classified servers. And yet, that essential layer of security can be spoofed. New research from the Oak Ridge National ...
