A new network paradigm can generate meaningfully random numbers—and fast. In network encryption, randomness has huge value because it’s not “solvable” by hackers. Classical computers can ...

I need to generate a file of unordered random numbers with C to test sort functions. Currently, with the `srand ()' and `rand ()' functions, I always get a set of numbers that is in increasing order.

This is important because RDRAND is used by software to generate random values for strong secure encryption and other cryptography; a value of always 4 will silently wreck that data protection.
