Algorithmically random sequence

Intuitively, an algorithmically random sequence (or random sequence) is an infinite sequence of binary digits that appears random to any algorithm.

Barker code

A Barker code or Barker sequence is a finite sequence of N values of +1 and −1, with the ideal autocorrelation property, such that the off-peak (non-cyclic) autocorrelation coefficients are as small as possible: for all 1 \le v. Only nine Barker sequences are known, all of length N at most 13.
