Random Number Generators Random Number Generators Based upon specific mathematical algorithms Which are repeatable and sequential Random Truly Random Exhibiting true randomness Pseudorandom Appearance of randomness but having a specific repeatable pattern Quasi-random Having a set of non-random numbers in a randomized order Problems Difficult to isolate Often need to replace current generator Require Knowledge of current generator Sometimes in-depth understanding of random number generators themselves Large scale tests cause most problems Needing sometimes millions or billions of random number
