Abstract: Abstract Some theory of linear congruential pseudo random number generators xn+1= (axn+c) mod m is summarized for the case in which the modulus m is a power of 10. These generators are especially suitable for implementation on both programmable and non‐programmable pocket calculators. Results are presented of extensive statistical testing of two specific generators.
