In computing, a hardware random number generator (HRNG) or true random number generator (TRNG) is a device that generates random numbers from a physical process, rather than by means of an algorithm. Such devices are often based on microscopic phenomena that generate low-level, statistically random "noise" signals, such as thermal noise, the photoelectric effect, involving a beam splitter, and other quantum phenomena.

Examples of use of random number
1. Far better to use a random number generator on an electronic calculator.
2. The company found 40,000 such people, whom it knows by random number, not name, and sent them a tailored online ad.
3. The enlistment statistics in Tel Aviv (if there is any connection between them and the apparently random number of the fallen) have several aspects.
4. At least 23 million people in Britain own at least one Premium Bond and have the chance to be picked by Ernie (Electronic Random Number Indicator Equipment) –– the computer which selects winners.
5. Three is generally thought to be lucky, "seven" is what people most often reply when asked to name a random number, and 11 is satisfyingly obscure (it isn‘t divisible, it‘s one short of a dozen and isn‘t considered particularly lucky or unlucky). So avoid these numbers.
