The Mersenne Twister is a pseudorandom number generator developed in 1997 by Makoto Matsumoto (松本 眞) and Takuji Nishimura (西村 拓士). The Mersenne Twister is an improved version of the TT800 generator developed by the same authors, designed to generate very high-quality random numbers quickly while avoiding the problems of earlier generators.
