How random are the numbers really?

The generator uses the Web Crypto API's crypto.getRandomValues() method, which provides cryptographically secure random numbers. This is far superior to Math.random() and suitable for applications requiring true randomness, including security-sensitive contexts. The randomness comes from the operating system's entropy source, ensuring unpredictable and fair results.

Can I generate unique numbers only?

Yes! Enable the "Unique numbers only" option to ensure no duplicates appear in your generated set. This is perfect for lottery draws, raffle selections, or any scenario where you need distinct values. Note that the quantity of unique numbers cannot exceed the range size (e.g., you can't generate 20 unique numbers from a range of 1-10).

What's the maximum range and quantity?

There are no hard limits on range or quantity. You can use any integer range (including negative numbers) and generate thousands of numbers at once. However, for unique number generation, the quantity cannot exceed the total numbers available in your range. For example, a range of 1-100 can generate at most 100 unique numbers.

Can I use negative numbers?

Absolutely! The generator supports any integer range, including negative numbers. You can use ranges like -100 to 100, -50 to 50, or even entirely negative ranges like -1000 to -1. This is useful for generating test data, coordinates, or temperature values.

Is this suitable for cryptographic purposes?

While the generator uses cryptographically secure random number generation (crypto.getRandomValues()), it should not be used for critical security applications like generating encryption keys, passwords, or authentication tokens. For those purposes, use dedicated cryptographic libraries and follow security best practices. This tool is perfect for games, simulations, testing, and general-purpose random number needs.

Why use this instead of Math.random()?

JavaScript's Math.random() is a pseudo-random number generator that can be predictable and is not suitable for applications requiring fairness or security. Our generator uses crypto.getRandomValues(), which provides true randomness from the operating system's entropy source. This ensures unpredictable, unbiased results suitable for lottery draws, gaming, and other applications where fairness matters.

How does the sorting feature work?

You can choose to display results in three ways: unsorted (numbers appear in the order they were randomly generated), ascending (smallest to largest), or descending (largest to smallest). Sorting doesn't affect the randomness - it only changes how results are displayed, making them easier to read and verify.

Can I use this for dice rolling?

Yes! This is perfect for simulating dice rolls. For a standard 6-sided die, set the range to 1-6 and quantity to 1. For multiple dice, increase the quantity. For other dice types, adjust the range: D4 (1-4), D8 (1-8), D10 (1-10), D12 (1-12), D20 (1-20), or D100 (1-100). You can even simulate custom dice with any range.

Completely! All random number generation happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. No data is sent to any server, no numbers are logged, and no information is collected. You can even use this tool offline once the page is loaded. Your generated numbers are 100% private.
