PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
ent: ent (pseudorandom number sequence test program)
ent:
ent: ent applies various tests to sequences of bytes stored in files
ent: and reports the results of those tests. The program is useful
ent: for evaluating pseudorandom number generators for encryption and
ent: statistical sampling applications, compression algorithms, and other
ent: applications where the information density of a file is of interest.
ent: Tests performed include Entropy, Chi-square, Arithmetic Mean, Monte
ent: Carlo value for Pi, and Serial Correlation Coefficient.
