The multiple-precision arithmetic section of mine is easily found by looking at the colour on the edge of those pages. There is no better treatment of this subject out there.
- commandlinefan 9y agoAs far as I know, the section on random number generation is the only treatment of that subject anywhere, better or worse.
- wglb 9y agoI don't think that this is quite true. On page 189 of Volume 2 (Third edition) there are two paragraphs discussing previous literature, including bibliographies. I do recall prior to the publication of Vol 2 that there were numerous ACM articles discussing this topic. But Knuth's exposition is certainly comprehensive compared to anything else. (But I don't see anything about CSPRNG)
