Ok. Until what I have gotten is: A PRG is generator is a part of PRF that produces pseudo-random values for the function. PRF is semantically secure and has no worries of being invertible. Fine, then where is PRP used? What is PRP, where it comes to, how it benefits.
Tell me more

A Pseudo Random Function is a function that is indistinguishable from a function selected at random from the set of all functions with the same domain and value set. A Pseudo Random Permutation is, similarly, a bijective function that is indistinguishable from a bijective function selected at random from the set of all bijective functions over the same domain. For instance, a cryptographically secure block cipher parametrized by a secret key is a PRP. The term PRG is otoh most commonly used for stateful functions that are used for generating successive pseudo random strings, e.g. to be used as a key, iv, salt, nonce etc. |
