A Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) is a key component in the realm of stream ciphers within classical cryptography. It is a shift register whose input bit is a linear function of its previous state. The most commonly used linear function in LFSRs is the exclusive-or (XOR). LFSRs are widely utilized in various applications, including
