Random Number Generator FAQ
Is this truly random?

This generator uses JavaScript's Math.random() function, which produces pseudorandom numbers. They are statistically random and unpredictable for practical purposes like games, lotteries, and decisions. For cryptographic or security-critical applications, a hardware random number generator would be needed.

Can I generate lottery numbers?

Yes — set your range to match the lottery you're playing (e.g., 1–69 for Powerball white balls) and generate the required count. Keep in mind that all number combinations in a lottery have exactly equal probability, so random quick picks are just as likely to win as personally chosen numbers.

What's the difference between random and pseudorandom?

True randomness comes from physical phenomena (radioactive decay, atmospheric noise). Pseudorandom numbers are generated by deterministic algorithms that produce sequences indistinguishable from random for most purposes. For games, contests, and everyday decisions, pseudorandom is more than sufficient.
