Default Re: Why is Randomness so Hard to Prove?

Random number generators usually create an input based on the millisecond that they are activated, and enter it into a formula designed to return another number within the specified parameters. The formula tries to create as even a distribution of returned numbers as possible. No randomness here; a computer can only do what you tell it to do, even if you don't know what you're telling it.
