At what point do we draw the line and say that these methods are sufficiently random? The task at hand is to come up with a sequence you perceive as random based on the numbers themselves, so adding layers like this seems to go against the concept of the experiment entirely.
How is this different from opening up my JavaScript console and doing Math.random() several times?
Not a scientist but perhaps one can help me understand, wouldn’t posting this to a forum with many people interested in software add potential for selection bias. I’m guessing that people like this are more inclined to understand what a “random” sequence might look like and therefore skew the results. If not, why not?
