Method of generating a pseudo-random sequence of signs of a large sequence length

摘要

A method by which random bytes are generated. Such a random byte is obtained by adding a prime number once or several times to an 8-bit character. The choice whether a prime number is added once or several times to the 8-bit character depends on whether the preceding addition produced a result larger than or less than 256. The character obtained (modulo 256) also provides the following 8-bit character. A sequence of bits consisting of several bytes is assembled from random bytes thus generated, each byte being generated on the basis of a different prime number.
