Random Number Generator
A powerful and secure random number generator that uses cryptographic algorithms to generate truly random numbers. Perfect for statistical sampling, simulations, gaming, and cryptographic applications with support for custom ranges and decimal precision.
Interesting History
The history of random number generation is fascinating, dating back to ancient times with dice games and fortune-telling practices. The first mechanical random number generator was created by M.G. Kendall and B. Babington-Smith in 1938. The digital era brought new methods, starting with John von Neumann's "middle-square method" in 1946. The development of cryptographic random number generators in the 1960s revolutionized computer security. Today, quantum random number generators represent the cutting edge, using quantum mechanical phenomena to produce truly random numbers.
