A pseudorandom number generator is an algorithm for generating a sequence of numbers that approximates the properties of random numbers.
prime1 and prime2 are two prime numbers which should be both congruent to 3 modulo 4.
In our case this means that prime1-3 sould be divisible by 4, and (47-3)/4 = 11 so it’s divisible, and prime2-3 should be divisible by 4, and (67-3)/4 = 16 so it’s divisible.
This means The two primes, p and q, should both be congruent to 3 (mod 4) (this guarantees that each quadratic residue has one square root which is also a quadratic residue) and gcd(?(p-1), ?(q-1)) should be small (this makes the cycle length large).
Also, the greatest common divisor of prime1-1 and prime2-1 should be a small number, and that is since the greatest common divisor of 46 and 66 is 2.
xi, also called “seed”, should be an integer different than 1.[/color]
