In the linear congruential generator, only one previous random variable is used to derive the next one, we can use more of the earlier generated numbers, each associated with a specified multiplier - a compound generator. If the last k generated numbers are used, we can write

In the linear congruential generator, only one previous random variable is used to derive the next one, we can use more of the earlier generated numbers, each associated with a specified multiplier - a compound generator. If the last k generated numbers are used, we can write

$\nu _{i}$ =(a. $n^{(i-1)}+c)$ mod m
