one cannot ignore Knuth in matters random... follow the link to an excerpt from what is probably the most inspired chapter written on the topic in the last 50 years... still waiting for something to surpass it.

People who think about this topic almost invariably get into philosophical discussions about what the word “random” means. In a sense, there is no such thing as a random number; for example, is 2 a random number? Rather, we speak of a
sequence of independent random numbers with a specified distribution, and this means loosely that each number was obtained merely by chance, having nothing to do with other numbers of the sequence, and that each number has a specified probability of falling in any given range of values.

thankfully he is not one of those people...

Everyone talks about probability, but nobody can say what it is, to the satisfaction of others.

(were we talking' numbers? I guess, - 'Random' - defined by the numbers makes logical the illogic of the meaning of the word?)


Now I worked on this, even looked it up and read bit.....

sheesh you guys never get it!
The meaning of everything IS Random but 'blue' is always the right answer.
