I have noticed one error in your paper: In (16), "(2j-1)2j(2j+1)" should read "2(j-1)(2(j-1)+1)(2(j-1)+2)". Otherwise, the algorithm would simulate the wrong probability. Also, for clarity, the "1/2" and "3/2" in...

The requests and open questions for all my articles are now in a dedicated page: [Requests and Open Questions](https://peteroupc.github.io/requests.html). However, since this GitHub issue is about all aspects of Bernoulli...

I want to draw attention to my Supplemental Notes for Bernoulli Factory algorithms: - https://peteroupc.github.io/bernsupp.html Especially the section "Approximation Schemes". It covers ways to build polynomial approximations\*\* to the vast...

The following is an updated version of most of my [requests and open questions](https://peteroupc.github.io/requests.html#Bernoulli_Factory_Algorithms) on the Bernoulli factory problem: 1. What simulations exist that are "relatively simple" and succeed with...

I have collected all my questions on the Bernoulli factory problem in one place: - [Open Questions on the Bernoulli Factory Problem](https://peteroupc.github.io/bernreq.html).

@dhardy, @vigna, @lcrocker, @dj-on-github , can you review the random number generation articles I discuss in this issue, and answer the comments I give in this issue's opening post, if...

Thank you for the review. > I think you should define formally your requirements for "high-quality PRNGs" and start from there. Note that in [earlier versions](https://github.com/peteroupc/peteroupc.github.io/blob/84ead1f49bb898ed232e4943f32ac5a98c08555b/random.md#High_Quality_RNGs_Requirements) of the RNG recommendations...

My RNG recommendations article was updated, especially the sections "High-Quality PRNG Examples" and "Seed Generation for Noncryptographic PRNGs". Do you have answers to the questions I give in this issue's...

Before you wrote your comment, I recently updated the [requirements for high-quality PRNGs](https://github.com/peteroupc/peteroupc.github.io/blob/master/random.md#High_Quality_RNGs_Requirements) and eliminated any references to "state length"; rather the concept that replaces "state length" is the number...
