So I was looking at the list of algorithms page on Wikipedia, located at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_algorithms, the other day when I noticed a few funny sounding ones:
Blum Blum Shub – a pseudorandom number generator (named after the creators)Bogosort – sort that generates random permutations until it finds “the one”Blowfish – type of block cipherDoomsday – calculates the day of the week of a given date (apparently each year has a doomsday, the day of the week on which the last day of February falls)
Leave a comment if you know of others :)
