same pseudo random binary number on two different laptops

I want to generate same pseudo random binary number on two different laptops at the same time.

 

How can I do that. Please provide suggestions.

Hi JK,

 

use a PRNG algorithm that allows to generate the very same numbers on both computers. Use the very same conditions on both computers.

Don't rely on the computer time (atleast not fractional seconds) as the computers are probably not in sync (very accurately)…

Best regards,

Hi Joseph,

 

I don't have any examples of this. Usually you use PRNGs to generate unique numbers…

You need to create your own algorithm.

 

There are USB sticks available that generate unique numbers in a certain reproducable way, which are used for authentification of bank account operations. You might take them as inspiration for your task…

Best regards,
GerdW
