#circuitpythonparsec Generate random-ish numbers from floating analog pins in CircuitPython. NOTE: these aren't encryption grade or anything! But, they can be an excellent non-zero seed for generating a non-deterministic number. https://github.com/jedgarpark/parsec/blob/main/2025-07-17/code.py https://www.adafruit.com/product/4884 Learn about CircuitPython: https://circuitpython.org Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------
