The first example that a user encounters in the Executables of nrCascadeSim section of the docs fails. It will run without producing warning or errors, but if run from the top level of the project rep…

For the Multinomial op to be able to generate a distribution at runtime, a prerequisite is a `RandomSequence` operation that can generate random numbers on any target device. The algorithm needs to b…

The `jumpahead` argument in `pisa.utils.random_numbers.get_random_state` does not result in independent sequences of output numbers if the random state is used to generate random numbers. It doesn't e…

I am working to create file format signatures for use in file identifications tools such as DROID and Siegfried. Can you please let me know what format the files on https://pminus1.cloudygo.com/ are? …

Sometimes one needs a source of **"random looking" non-repeating integers** (non repeating until all the possible values have been generated). In concrete terms the simplest such generator (without t…

When running `petname --non-repeating`, for simplicity of implementation the word lists are shuffled only once at the start, then iterated through like a counter. For example, supposing we have 2 word…

`targets` has two major challenges with pseudo-random number generation:
1. Statistical reproducibility. Different runs of the same pipeline must give the exact same results.
2. Statistical indepe…

Every once in a while a user asks for the ability to manipulate integers beyond the 32-bit range handled by TeX. This is solved for instance by `bigintcalc` and more recently by `xint` (manipulating …

Hi there! — I recently installed `dockstring`, however when running tests on my machine I get that several of them fail.
I have not seen this documented, and on the `main` branch the badge shows pa…
