Technically, the template does not generate ''truly'' random numbers, just numbers random enough so that you won't be able to tell that it is ordered. It works by exploiting the special property of square numbers, such that the last digit can be easily predicted, but the middle digits are statistically random for high values. Therefore, my RNG works by chopping off the last digit of a continuously changing square number (created by the magic word <nowiki>{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}}</nowiki>), and then mashing the numbers around so the different seeds are unlike, until finally using modulo(<code>mod</code>) to truncate the number within the limits specified. | Technically, the template does not generate ''truly'' random numbers, just numbers random enough so that you won't be able to tell that it is ordered.
