- ogrisel 13y agoThe integer seeds of the PRNG on hand and the first (or second or nth) generated pseudo random number on the other hand.
- mistercow 13y agoI guess an even more obvious case would be a cryptographic hash, with the variables being the input and the output. But in this case still there is a correlation. In fact, the existence of the correlation is trivial to see: after a known transformation (the PRNG/hash itself) the correlation becomes linear.
- tel 13y agoConstant, even.
