in thread How to not print the same random number

Yes sure, the array with all numbers is build and shuffled. On the other hand, hash solutions require more memory and more cpu power they build the same array but slower. A hash is a better choice, if you use only some number out of a large range. For really really much numbers a database is my best choice.
