<< I'm not sure if it helps anyone think about this differently, but we've
had "random" number generators generating seemingly random numbers for a
long time, yet the numbers are not truly random as they are generated
by a computer following instructions. >><br><br>Technically such numbers are known as pseudo-random numbers. As KT notes these are produced by an algorithm and so repeatedable (in practice one uses a different seed so that it doesnt repeat). The sequence is called random since a statistical study indicates that there is no correlation between the numbers.<br>
