Re: Random Number Generation

Excel has a random number generator.  I dont know how good it is.  Many
random number generators seem to generate the a relatively small set numbers
over and over again.

Random number generators develop a set of psuedo random numbers, that is, a
subset of the universe of random numbers.

I read somewhere, many years ago:  "Only God can create a random number".
