Question

The cipher where some pseudo-random sequence generated from the key is superimposed on the source text.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The purpose of the seed is to allow the user to "lock" the pseudo-random number generator, to allow replicable analysis. Some analysts like to set the seed using a true random-number generator (TRNG) which uses hardware inputs to generate an initial seed number, and then report this as a locked number
