Abstract
The present invention relates to an execution unit for executing a computer program comprising a sequence of instructions, which include a masking instruction. The execution unit is configured to execute the masking instruction which, when executed by the execution unit, masks randomly selected values from a source operand of n values and retains other original values from the source operand to generate a result which includes original values from the source operand and symbols in place of the selected values.
