As far my understanding linear congruential generator is used to produce pseudo random number. But the algorithm requires four parameters like,
def lcg(modulus, a, c, seed): while True: seed = (a * seed + c) % modulus yield seedIn that case to get a true pseudo random number we cannot provide same values of params, then why it is called random generator? if I really need to provide random (seeds, a, c, m) tuples than it raises the same philosophical problem, Is it possible to produce random number? Could anyone describe why its called random generator algorithm?
