Generating a private key from a random number Creating a bitcoin key is essentially the same as “Pick a number between 1 and 2256.” The exact method you use to pick that number does not matter as long as it is not predictable or repeatable. More precisely, the private key can be any number between …
EPSILON The Number.EPSILON property represents the difference between 1 and the smallest floating point number greater than 1 > Number.EPSILON == Math.pow(2, -52) true Use Number.EPSILON to test floating point number equality. x = 0.2; y = 0.3; z = 0.1; equal = (Math.abs(x – y + z) < Number.EPSILON); https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Number/EPSILON MAX_SAFE_INTEGER & MIN_SAFE_INTEGER The MAX_SAFE_INTEGER constant has a …

See: List of non-cryptographic hash functions Pearson hashing Pearson hashing is a hash function designed for fast execution on processors with 8-bit registers. This hash function is a CBC-MAC that uses an 8-bit substitution cipher implemented via the substitution table. An 8-bit cipher has negligible cryptographic security, so the Pearson hash function is not cryptographically strong, but it is useful for implementing hash tables or as a data integrity check …
