A shrinking generator is a type of pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) that combines the outputs of two or more other pseudorandom number generators to produce a single stream of pseudorandom bits. The concept is often employed in cryptographic applications to enhance the security of the pseudorandom output. ### Key Characteristics: 1. **Combination of Generators**: A shrinking generator typically takes two or more independent PRNGs.
