Frequently Asked Questions
How does the random number generator work?
It uses JavaScript's built-in random number generation to produce uniformly distributed numbers between your minimum and maximum values. Each result is independent and unpredictable.
Can I generate multiple random numbers at once?
Yes. Set the 'How many' field to generate up to 100 numbers in a single click. Results are unique by default, or allow duplicates if needed.
Are these numbers truly random?
JavaScript uses a pseudo-random number generator (PRNG). For games, simulations, and everyday use, it's more than sufficient. For cryptographic purposes, use a dedicated cryptographic library.
Can I use negative numbers?
Yes. Enter negative values for the minimum or maximum. The generator handles any range from -1,000,000 to 1,000,000.
Can I pick a random item from a list?
Enter your items separated by commas in the list picker mode, and the tool will randomly select one or more items for you.
Is this tool free and private?
Yes. Completely free, no sign-up, and all generation happens in your browser.
