Random Number Generator

This version of the generator creates a random integer. It can deal with very large integers up to a few thousand digits.

Comprehensive Version

This version of the generator can create one or many random integers or decimals. It can deal with very large numbers with up to 999 digits of precision.

A random number is a number chosen from a pool of limited or unlimited numbers that has no discernible pattern for prediction. The pool of numbers is almost always independent from each other. However, the pool of numbers may follow a specific distribution. For example, the height of the students in a school tends to follow a normal distribution around the median height. If the height of a student is picked at random, the picked number has a higher chance to be closer to the median height than being classified as very tall or very short. The random number generators above assume that the numbers generated are independent of each other, and will be evenly spread across the whole range of possible values.

A random number generator, like the ones above, is a device that can generate one or many random numbers within a defined scope. Random number generators can be hardware based or pseudo-random number generators. Hardware based random-number generators can involve the use of a dice, a coin for flipping, or many other devices.

A pseudo-random number generator is an algorithm for generating a sequence of numbers whose properties approximate the properties of sequences of random numbers. Computer based random number generators are almost always pseudo-random number generators. Yet, the numbers generated by pseudo-random number generators are not truly random. Likewise, our generators above are also pseudo-random number generators. The random numbers generated are sufficient for most applications yet they should not be used for cryptographic purposes. True random numbers are based on physical phenomena such as atmospheric noise, thermal noise, and other quantum phenomena. Methods that generate true random numbers also involve compensating for potential biases caused by the measurement process.

About Random Number Generators

There are two main types of random number generators: pseudo-random and true random.

A pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) is typically programmed using a randomizing math function to select a "random" number within a set range. These random number generators are pseudo-random because the computer program or algorithm may have unintended selection bias. In other words, randomness from a computer program is not necessarily an organic, truly random event.

A true random number generator (TRNG) relies on randomness from a physical event that is external to the computer and its operating system. Examples of such events are blips in atmospheric noise, or points at which a radioactive material decays. A true random number generator receives information from these types of unpredictable events to produce a truly random number.

This calculator uses a randomizing computer program to produce random numbers, so it is a pseudo-random number generator.

How to Generate Random Numbers

Do you need to include random numbers and letters in a random character set? See the CalculatorSoup ® Random Number and Letter Set Generator .

Example: Generate a Random Number to Use as a PIN .

To generate a 6-digit PIN with or without duplicate digits choose the following settings:

Do it: Generate a 6 digit PIN without duplicates

Example: Randomize a Set of Numbers

Say you have a group of 10 people represented by the numbers 1 to 10. You want to shuffle them into a random order of selection for an event.

Choose the following settings to randomize order of selection:

Do it: Randomize the order of a set of numbers, 1 to 10

Example: Randomly Choose One Number From a Range of Numbers

Say you want randomly select one number from 1 to 10, like drawing a number out of a hat.

Choose the following settings:

Do it: Random number generator 1 to 10

Also try: Random number generator 1 to 100

Example: Lottery Number Generator

You want to generate numbers for lottery tickets. You need to choose 5 numbers from a pool of 1 to 49 without duplicates.

Choose the following settings in the random number generator:

Do it: Generate 5 lottery numbers from a range of 1 to 49

Random Integer Generator

This form allows you to generate random integers. The randomness comes from atmospheric noise, which for many purposes is better than the pseudo-random number algorithms typically used in computer programs.

Part 1: The Integers

Generate random integers (maximum 10,000).

Each integer should have a value between and (both inclusive; limits ±1,000,000,000).

Format in column(s).

Part 2: Go!

Be patient! It may take a little while to generate your numbers...

Need more numbers than this form supports? Check out our File Generation Service .

Note: The numbers generated with this form will be picked independently of each other (like rolls of a die) and may therefore contain duplicates. There is also the Sequence Generator , which generates randomized sequences (like raffle tickets drawn from a hat) and where each number can only occur once.
