 		 #78801 - RE: seeding random number generator
Responding to: ???'s previous message
"I derived a mathematical definition for the randomness of a finite set of numbers which was independent of the process by which the set was generated."

Sorry, but I just don't buy this at all. The 'randomness' of a set of numbers is entirely dictated by the process that is used to generate them.

"If you just randomly read the output noise from an ADC it is possible, however unlikely, that you could read the integer sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10."

Could you give us you mathematical definition for the randomness of that particular set of numbers?
