NOTES

Overflow checking is not applicable to unsigned and signed multiplies with a 64-bit result, since overflow
does not occur in such calculations.


PSEUDO-RANDOM BINARY SEQUENCE GENERATOR

It is often necessary to generate (pseudo-) random numbers and the most efficient algorithms are based on shift
generators with exclusive-OR feedback rather like a cyclic redundancy check generator. Unfortunately the
sequence of a 32 bit generator needs more than one feedback tap to be maximal length (i.e. 2^32-1 cycles before
repetition), so this example uses a 33 bit register with taps at bits 33 and 20. The basic algorithm is newbit:=bit 33
eor bit 20, shift left the 33 bit number and put in newbit at the bottom; this operation is performed for all the newbits
needed (i.e. 32 bits). The entire operation can be done in 5 S cycles:

; Enter with seed in Ra (32 bits),

; Rb (1 bit in Rb lsb), uses Rc.

TST

Rb,Rb,LSR#1

; Top bit into carry

MOVS

Rc,Ra,RRX

; 33 bit rotate right

ADC

Rb,Rb,Rb

; Carry into lsb of Rb

EOR

Rc,Rc,Ra,LSL#12

;

(involved!)

EOR

Ra,Rc,Rc,LSR#20

; (similarly involved!) new seed in Ra, Rb as before
