I want to pass a chunk of Python code to Python in R with something like system('python ...'), and I'm wondering if there is an easy way to emulate the python console in this case. For example, suppose the code is "print 'hello world'", how can I get the output like this in R?

program_name -input -output -o1 -o2…

I need some good pseudo random number generator that can be computed like a pure function from its previous output without any state hiding. Under "good" I mean:
I must be able to parametrize generator in such way that running it for 2^n iterations with any parameters should cover all or almost…

Hi,
I need to generate a cryptographically secure 64-bit unsigned random integer in Javascript. The first problem is that Javascript only allows 64-bit signed integers, so 9223372036854775808 is the biggest supported integer without going into floating point use I think? To fix this I can use a big…

Maybe there is a very logic explanation for this, but I just can't seem to understand why the seeds 0 and 2,147,483,647 produce the same "random" sequence, using .NET's Random Class (System).
Quick code example:
ushort len = 8;
Random r0 = new Random(0), r1 = new Random(1), r2 = new Random(int.MaxValue);…
