In cryptography, a pseudorandom generator (or PSG) is procedure that outputs a sequence computationally indistinguishable from truly random sequence with uniformly distributed random sequence. The prefix pseudo (from Greek ψευδής "lying, false") is used to mark something as false, fraudulent, or pretending to be something it is not. Pseudo random generators find application in many fields besides cryptography such as applied mathematics, physics and simulations. Simulations often require mechanisms producing sequences of random values. These procedures are certainly non-trivial and often require significant amounts of computational time.

First of all let’s start with pseudorandom functions. A pseudorandom function is any function defined over Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle {{\textnormal(K, X, Y)}}} :

such that exists efficient algorithm to evaluate Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle {{\textnormal F(k,x)}}} .[1]
