Numbers that are truly random are hard to come by — even a roulette wheel's results can be predicted if you have the right information. But researchers have been able to find pure randomness ...

The method used to generate the digits, a pair of 555 timers sending pulses through linear-feedback shift registers, would at best be considered pseudo-random.

A new laser’s chaotic light beam lets the device generate multiple number sequences at once, similar to throwing multiple dice at a time.

Using a single, chip-scale laser, scientists have managed to generate streams of completely random numbers at about 100 times the speed of the fastest random-numbers generator systems that are ...

Current methods of generating random numbers can produce predictable results. Researchers said the new method could generate higher-quality random numbers with less computer processing.

There’s no cheating this random number generator The protocol ensures jury duty selections and other draws are truly random and secure ...
