Combined linear congruential generator         
PSEUDO-RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR ALGORITHM
Combined Linear Congruential Generator
A combined linear congruential generator (CLCG) is a pseudo-random number generator algorithm based on combining two or more linear congruential generators (LCG). A traditional LCG has a period which is inadequate for complex system simulation.

  • The [[Faraday disk]] was the first electric generator. The horseshoe-shaped magnet ''(A)'' created a magnetic field through the disk ''(D)''. When the disk was turned, this induced an electric current radially outward from the center toward the rim. The current flowed out through the sliding spring contact ''m'', through the external circuit, and back into the center of the disk through the axle.

Free-piston linear generator         
  • FPLG patent from 1943 - Pontus Ostenberg, USA by P. Ostenberg
Free pistol linear generator; FPLG
The free-piston linear generator (FPLG) uses chemical energy from fuel to drive magnets through a stator and converts this linear motion into electric energy. Because of its versatility, low weight and high efficiency, it can be used in a wide range of applications, although it is of special interest to the mobility industry as range extenders for electric vehicles.

Linear congruential generator

A linear congruential generator (LCG) is an algorithm that yields a sequence of pseudo-randomized numbers calculated with a discontinuous piecewise linear equation. The method represents one of the oldest and best-known pseudorandom number generator algorithms. The theory behind them is relatively easy to understand, and they are easily implemented and fast, especially on computer hardware which can provide modular arithmetic by storage-bit truncation.

The generator is defined by the recurrence relation:

X n + 1 = ( a X n + c ) mod m {\displaystyle X_{n+1}=\left(aX_{n}+c\right){\bmod {m}}}

where X {\displaystyle X} is the sequence of pseudo-random values, and

m , 0 < m {\displaystyle m,\,0<m} — the "modulus"
a , 0 < a < m {\displaystyle a,\,0<a<m} — the "multiplier"
c , 0 c < m {\displaystyle c,\,0\leq c<m} — the "increment"
X 0 , 0 X 0 < m {\displaystyle X_{0},\,0\leq X_{0}<m} — the "seed" or "start value"

are integer constants that specify the generator. If c = 0, the generator is often called a multiplicative congruential generator (MCG), or Lehmer RNG. If c ≠ 0, the method is called a mixed congruential generator.: 4- 

When c ≠ 0, a mathematician would call the recurrence an affine transformation, not a linear one, but the misnomer is well-established in computer science.: 1
