  2. /dev/random - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dev/random

    When read, the /dev/random device will only return random bytes within the estimated number of bits of noise in the entropy pool. When the entropy pool is empty, reads from /dev/random will block until additional environmental noise is gathered. [7] The intent is to serve as a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator, delivering ...

    sort (Unix) In computing, sort is a standard command line program of Unix and Unix-like operating systems, that prints the lines of its input or concatenation of all files listed in its argument list in sorted order. Sorting is done based on one or more sort keys extracted from each line of input. By default, the entire input is taken as sort key.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)

    In computer science, a stack is an abstract data type that serves as a collection of elements with two main operations: Pop, which removes the most recently added element. Additionally, a peek operation can, without modifying the stack, return the value of the last element added.

  8. Pseudorandom number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_number_generator

    A pseudorandom number generator (PRNG), also known as a deterministic random bit generator (DRBG), [1] is an algorithm for generating a sequence of numbers whose properties approximate the properties of sequences of random numbers. The PRNG-generated sequence is not truly random, because it is completely determined by an initial value, called ...

    struct (C programming language) In the C programming language, struct is the keyword used to define a composite, a.k.a. record, data type – a named set of values that occupy a block of memory. It allows for the different values to be accessed via a single identifier, often a pointer. A struct can contain other data types so is used for mixed ...
