Abstract

In earlier papers C. Mauduit and A. Sárközy have introduced and studied the measures of pseudorandomness for finite binary sequences. In [8] they extend this theory to sequences of k symbols: they give the definitions and also construct a “good” pseudorandom sequence of k symbols. In this paper these measures are studied for a “truely random” sequence.
