Random Number And Name Picker
Random Number And Name Picker: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers item list (list). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.
Random Number And Name Picker is a planned calculator in the lifestyle section of Super Calculator, covering games and probability.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: item list (list), count to draw (n), with replacement (bool), weights (list) and seed (n).
Outputs: selected items (list), draw order (list) and verification seed (n).
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Uniform selection without modulo bias requires rejection sampling over the cryptographic random source rather than a modulo reduction. Selection without replacement uses a Fisher-Yates shuffle, which is unbiased where a naive sort by random key is not.
