In practice, the probability of randomly choosing a Carmichael number of
size 250 bits is vanishingly small.
I would say that finding any Carmichael number without

Hi,
The Pseudorandom Number Generator specified in Ansi X9.17 used to be one

It was? When? I had to replace the OpenSSL PRNG with X9.31 (as has been
discussed elsewhere, this is the same PRNG) for the FIPS-140

U.S. government appears to be exploring whether it should be illegal to
ship them overseas.
A federal advisory committee met Wednesday to hear an IBM presentation

How do you chose a random integer, that this, based on which
