The program generates a random maze with the number of rows and columns given by user input. Depth First Search(DFS) is used to determin the content of the maze. The generating process is visualized ...

From jury duty to tax audits, randomness plays a big role. Scientists used quantum physics to build a system that ensures those number draws can’t be gamed.

The outcome of quantum experiments is intrinsically unpredictable. Now physicists have combined that feature with blockchain ...

Randomness is incredibly useful. People often draw straws, throw dice or flip coins to make fair choices. Random numbers can ...

Very little in this life is truly random. A coin flip is influenced by the flipper’s force, its surrounding airflow, and ...
