Hence, the given statement is “False”.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Explanation:
- The word random means “unpredictable” or non-deterministic.
- The computers cannot create truly random numbers. This is because of the fact that computers like human beings cannot be random.
- The computers can only create pseudo random numbers using some
algorithms or programs. - Even though computers cannot produce truly random numbers, one can get natural random numbers from some machine events and get true random values from that by the assumption “anything in the world is random only”.
