Computer generation of random numbers. Pursuing our random theme, numbers this time, here are UK Lottery numbers generated by a very simple script. Anything produced at random seems senseless, except when it is senselessness produced randonly for God, then, by a miracle, it makes sense to Christians. When a lottery selection matches those produced randomly by the lottery companies, then it makes sense to the winner, but not to a million or so losers. Of course, if you win the lottery at odds of a few million to one against, then it seems like a miracle! A computer can pick random numbers quite well. What it cannot purposely do is pick the same random numbers that the machine of the lottery company selects. At least by using fresh random numbers each time you enter, you do not feel trapped by a list of birthdays or lucky numbers. That is what you should never do, but what the owners of casinos and lotteries want you to do. 'Course, if you do win, you could send us your old notes!
