How do you think? Taco?
Sorry, I haven't asked the question precisely. What do you think about random numbers available as a pdfTeX primitive?
It would be easy to port metafont's random code, but I'm not sure if that is random enough for your (it was state of the art, but that was a quarter of a century ago). I'll create a change file to show you (hopefully today)
not random enough indeed (for fast runs); this is why i let an external app generate the random number if it really needs to be random Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
