Hello,
I am a student and I dont understand one thing. My project was to research and compare two random number generators. I chose Java's LCG and python's mersenne twister.
Could you explain to me why your (python) RNG prediction loses accuracy over time. I have researched more cracks on Mersenne twister, and they explained that if you have the first 624 integers, you are able to find the seed, as that is where the seed number possibility ends. Is python somehow buffering its seed every step after 624, or what is the issue?
