Random Generator
A random generator produces a result by chance, with no pattern you can predict. This page draws a number in any range, picks an item from your own list, flips a coin or rolls dice using your browser’s secure random source, and links to the other Dicekite generators for teams, characters, words and sentences.

How the random generator works
Every draw asks your browser for 32 random bits with crypto.getRandomValues. To turn those bits into a number from 1 to N without favoring small numbers, the tool throws away the few values that would make the split uneven (rejection sampling), so each outcome has exactly the same chance. Nothing you type is sent to a server or stored.
Worked example
Choose Dice, two dice with six sides. Each die shows 1 to 6 with a chance of 1 in 6. The total 7 can be made six ways out of 36 pairs, so it comes up about 16.7% of the time, while 2 and 12 each come up 1 time in 36, about 2.8%. A single d20 gives every number from 1 to 20 a 5% chance. The number 47 shown before you press the button is only an example draw.

Frequently asked questions
What is a random generator?
It is a tool that picks a result by chance, such as a number, an item from a list, a coin side or a dice roll, with no pattern you can predict.
Is this really random?
It uses the browser’s cryptographic random source, which is seeded from your device’s own entropy and is designed to be unpredictable. It is a computer-generated random source, not a physical dice or coin.
Can I pick a random name from a list?
Yes. Choose “An item from my list”, type one item per line and press Draw.
Are results saved?
No. Results stay in your browser tab and disappear when you close it. The history under the result only lasts until you reload the page.
Start from the Random Generator Letters home page for every generator.
