👉 The term "congruential" is a mathematical concept that refers to a numerical sequence or process where each element in the sequence (or in the case of a number system, digits) follows a fixed pattern or rule. This pattern can be either arithmetic or geometric, and it usually involves a series of steps or iterations. In mathematics, congruential algorithms are used for generating random numbers in various applications such as cryptography, scientific simulations, and data analysis. These algorithms use modular arithmetic to generate
