Plez give me two intergers off the top of your head between
1 and 10. Plez dont be an ass and say something that you
(and only you) will think is funny, just give me two
numbers, and you'll see where i'm going with this.

Well i just wanted to do a little test in Randomness. I
noticed that nobody picked the same number twice. I believe
that is because the first number is what ever number comes
to your head, but when it comes around to picking the
second, you base your decision on what the first number was.
After all, the odds of getting the same number twice are 1
in 10 and there wasnt a single person that posted a number
twice (there were 10 VALID posts). This leads me to conclude
that with an individual there is no such thing as
randomness. You need two or more people to accomplish this.
This all ties into programming (hope somebody else here does
it to). How ,i wonder, does a computer pick random numbers
(after all that is a major factor in almost all programs
written these days). Anyone care to discuss?


 

Condoleezza Rice on 2001-10-25 19:08 [#00045489]



Wow you're right. But I think part of the problem is that
people assume, even though you have not said so, that the
two numbers must be unique.



 

1010-1111-10 from St.John\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Newfoudnland, Canada on 2001-10-25 19:10 [#00045490]



Assume... thats messes up randomness as well. Damn our
subliminal minds


 

xepha88 from a website you are reading on your computer on 2001-10-25 19:25 [#00045492]



well, I do know that the first number I wanted was 8, and
then the next thought that came to my mind was to choose 8
again... (my name~~) but I was not sure if that was allowed
or not. Now granted, from the perpective of programming,
you did allow for repeat integers by NOT not saying it was
okay to choose the same interval.

-so maybe I've learned about myself is that I tend to take
the safer path? hrmmm... and as for how you get truly
random intergers in programs... i remember back in vb
script you had to do something where you would randomize the
interger that was going to be randomized... or multiply it
or something like that.

-I dunno~ i was gonna look into it more, but then this girl
wanted to have sex, so I had to leave the warm glow of the
monitor.

--j/k... don't worry man~ I'm a computer freak.. hehe

 

oki from grmny on 2001-10-26 11:36 [#00045688]



well, i chose the numbers that have had most impact on my
life so far 3/7 ... but guess you´re right on the
"randomness-effect" ...


 

Ophecks on 2001-10-26 12:06 [#00045698]

2,4
9,5
9,2
8,2

2 was picked three times and nine was picked twice...?
I read a brief bit on how random number generators pick
random numbers, but don't remember it exactly. I'm a freak
and when I read I take notes so it's probably in one of my
notes. I know it's based on logical mathematics to make it
appear random. ((I think there's some weird flaws in mega
man's randomness for snes/nes. Very rarely when you vanquish
a foe, you get an extra life... however when you FINALLY get
one extra life, the odds increase greatly that you'll get
another one soon, sometimes you'll suddenly get 3 lives
almost in a row.))

1010-1111-10 from St.John\\\\\\\'s Newfoudnland, Canada on 2001-10-26 21:29 [#00045853]



Cock and Cunt is getting pretty old. I guess where there is
intellect, there are idiots. (this post also proves this)


 

Ophecks on 2001-10-26 21:32 [#00045855]



I can't help it, please forgive me. I just enjoy the
consonants coming out of my mouth, along with my dignity.


 

1010-1111-10 from St.John\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Newfoudnland, Canada on 2001-10-26 21:35 [#00045857]



Try changing the order that the consonants come out.

 

DblHeLX from moon on 2001-10-26 21:35 [#00045858]



but if you repeat all the numbers randomly its quite likely
for 'cock and cunt' to come up again isnt it!
dont be so mean to ol ophek, hes just being random.

 

1010-1111-10 from St.John\\\\\\\\\'s Newfoudnland, Canada on 2001-10-26 21:41 [#00045863]



Wow what are the odds of that, the same thing came up 3 of
the 4 posts! Geez i think i'll go play the lottery.


 

Ophecks on 2001-10-26 21:43 [#00045867]



I'd say Cock and Cunt again, but chances are I'd get a smack
upside the breadbasket, eh?


 

DblHeLX from moon on 2001-10-26 21:48 [#00045868]



and if someone near you is holding a bread basket those odds
will most likely flip to you getting hit WITH a bread
basket!



 

redi vi der on 2001-10-26 21:53 [#00045871]



i do a little coding as well, your little experiment was
cool. what languages do you know?

p.s. - if you'd like to look at a few of my applets my site
is here


 

re divi der on 2001-10-26 21:54 [#00045872]



whoa i just did an [a href] to my site and it fucked the
code of the board.

it's at:http://www.geocities.com/autocatalysis

 

hevquip from a giraffes throat on 2001-10-26 22:05 [#00045874]



people aren't random. every possible action one can perform
has been determined and we then perform those actions. if
something was truly random, it could not possibly exist due
to the fact that it would have to be able to perform actions
that are not possible or in existance.


 

1010-1111-10 from St.John\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Newfoudnland, Canada on 2001-10-26 22:06 [#00045875]



it would be funny to see someones arm just move randomly.
Actually now that i think about it, that would be
disturbing, because the person would probably be beating the
hell out of themselves!


 

1010-1111-10 from St.John\\\\\\\\\'s Newfoudnland, Canada on 2001-10-26 22:08 [#00045876]



redi vi der i like your programs. They are like the ones i
write (but a bit better then mine). About the only thing i
wrote that was any good was disco pong. I have used Object
Oriented Turing and Q-Basic. I'm tyring out Visual Basic
right now. If anyone could tell me where the hell i can find
Turing i would appreciate it!


 

hevquip from a giraffes throat on 2001-10-26 22:14 [#00045878]



someone beating themself with their own arm would be pretty
funny. the potential for that action exists, so it wouldn't
be random though. people have free-will, but they are not
random. if i was random, thought would be impossible.
thoughts and thought patterns, sensation and perception,
would mean nothing to me as i would not be able to
understand them from the fact i would not be able to focus
them or bring them together. being random and having to
think would create strain for the fact that thoughts would
have to be organized or formed when they cant because there
would be no process for doing such an act.
