Random number generation is the process of producing numbers that cannot be predicted statistically. It is essential in various fields such as cryptography, computer simulations, statistical sampling, and gaming, where randomness is required to ensure fairness, create varied outputs, or simulate random phenomena. There are two main approaches to random number generation: 1. **True Random Number Generators (TRNGs)**: These generate numbers based on physical phenomena that are inherently random, such as thermal noise, radioactive decay, or atmospheric noise.
