How can you be sure the numbers are really random?

do u think dis is right I

Oddly enough, it is theoretically impossible to prove that a random number generator is really random. Rather, you analyse an increasing amount of numbers produced by a given generator, and depending on the results, your confidence in the generator increases (or decreases, as the case may be). This is explained in more detail on my Statistical Analysis page, which also contains two studies of the numbers generated by RANDOM.ORG, both of which concluded that the numbers are sound. In addition, the continually updated Real-Time Statistics page gives you an indication of the quality of the numbers produced over time.

Answer 1

SORRY!, but what has this to do with "dining out"?

Answer 2

Random generators don't generate random numbers.

The follow a very complex algorithm that produces numbers that appears random.

Answer 3

No set of numbers are truly random, no matter how random they appear to be!
