  3. Procedural generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_generation

    In computing, procedural generation (sometimes shortened as proc-gen) is a method of creating data algorithmically as opposed to manually, typically through a combination of human-generated content and algorithms coupled with computer-generated randomness and processing power. In computer graphics, it is commonly used to create textures and 3D ...

    Other games procedurally generate other aspects of gameplay, such as the weapons in Borderlands which have randomized stats and configurations. This is a list of video games that use procedural generation as a core aspect of gameplay. Games that use procedural generation solely during development as part of asset creation are not included.

Depending on your browser, it's also possible to load a random page using a keyboard shortcut (in Firefox, Edge, and Chrome Alt-Shift + X ).

  8. Maze generation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze_generation_algorithm

    This algorithm, also known as the "recursive backtracker" algorithm, is a randomized version of the depth-first search algorithm. Frequently implemented with a stack, this approach is one of the simplest ways to generate a maze using a computer. Consider the space for a maze being a large grid of cells (like a large chess board), each cell ...
