Re^2: Randomly biased, random numbers.

No, but I'm not looking for 'a better rand', nor a pointlessly OO one.

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

It can "plug in" (and actually also provides) different types of distribution function which may better serve your needs. CountZero A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout.
