Random Numbers?
I was just using my Ti-89 and was curious....How random is the random number function? How does it justify that a number is random?

Because the previous number in no way determines what the next will be.... basically, each number is equally as likely to occur as the next, and seeing as each number is independent entirely of the previous one, it is random. Therefore, the random number function is completely random
