A pseudorandom generator, or pseudorandom number generator (PRNG), is an algorithm that produces a sequence of numbers that appear to be random but are actually generated in a deterministic manner. Unlike true random number generators, which derive randomness from physical processes (like thermal noise or radioactive decay), PRNGs use mathematical functions to generate sequences of numbers based on an initial value known as a "seed.
