Example
Let, and (where is the seed.) We can expect to get a large cycle length for those small numbers, because . The generator starts to evaluate by using and creates the sequence, = 9, 81, 82, 36, 42, 92. The following table shows the output (in bits) for the different bit selection methods used to determine the output.
| Even parity bit | Odd parity bit | Least significant bit |
|---|---|---|
| 0 1 1 0 1 0 | 1 0 0 1 0 1 | 1 1 0 0 0 0 |

Famous quotes containing the word example:
“Our intellect is not the most subtle, the most powerful, the most appropriate, instrument for revealing the truth. It is life that, little by little, example by example, permits us to see that what is most important to our heart, or to our mind, is learned not by reasoning but through other agencies. Then it is that the intellect, observing their superiority, abdicates its control to them upon reasoned grounds and agrees to become their collaborator and lackey.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
