What is a simple formula for a non-iterative random number sequence?
问题 I would like to have a function f(x) that gives good pseudo-random numbers in uniform distribution according to value x. I am aware of linear congruential generators, however these work in iterations, i.e. I provide the initial seed and then I get a sequence of random values one by one. This is not what I want, because if a want to get let's say 200000th number in the sequence, I have to compute numbers 1 ... 199999. I need a function that is given by one simple formula that uses basic
