Abstract

In this paper was presented Itamaracá, a novel simple way to generate pseudo random numbers. In general vision we can say that Itamaracá tends to pass in some statistical tests like frequency, chi square, autocorrelation, run sequence and run test. As an effect to comparison also was taking into account the results of the function RandBetween by Microsoft Excel and true random numbers by Random Org analyzed its distinctive characteristics as well as with the proposal model. In this sense, the goal of this study is contributing to growing the existing Pseudo Random Number Generators (PRNGs) portfolio.
