Frequently Asked Questions
Computers use pseudo-random number generators (PRNGs) with algorithms like Mersenne Twister. Starting from a "seed" value, they produce sequences that appear random but are deterministic. For cryptography, true random sources (hardware) are used.
No, they are pseudo-random - deterministic but statistically random-looking. Same seed produces same sequence. For games and simulations, this is fine. For security (encryption keys), cryptographically secure generators use hardware entropy.
Formula: min + (random × (max - min + 1)) for integers. To get 1-10: 1 + floor(random × 10). Our calculator handles any range including decimals and negative numbers.
Use sampling without replacement: generate a number, remove from pool, repeat. Or shuffle the entire range and take the first N numbers. Our calculator can generate unique sets upon request.
