Very little in this life is truly random. A coin flip is influenced by the flipper’s force, its surrounding airflow, and ...

From jury duty to tax audits, randomness plays a big role. Scientists used quantum physics to build a system that ensures those number draws can’t be gamed.

Randomness is incredibly useful. People often draw straws, throw dice or flip coins to make fair choices. Random numbers can ...
