Interesting...

I was about to type how its impossible for a computer to generate a completaly random number....but since this isnt dont usng a computer as such, it seems pretty legit..

When I next see a good frind of mine (mathamaticion) Ill ask him about it..

Well, usually random numbers are generated by using the system clock to produce a "random" number... Sure it is truly random?

[Simo]

have you been to the site?

It explains how it generates the numbers there....pretty tech. stuff.

[thetechfreak]

the generate number from system clock is quasi (semi) random..not truly random, im just about to take a peek at that site

In the day's of BASIC programming I always added a FOR NEXT loop in the middle of at least one of my PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE Screens. SPAMSince the computer would take one count Flash just the message at the bottom of an intro screen and then repeat till a key was pressed it was very fast and very hard for someone to hit the key at the same time twice. SPAM SPAMThen added that value to my Random Number formula it was very random and hard to duplicate.
