# Random Numbers

## Random Numbers Selection

### How many numbers?

Tools to select numbers randomly, make random draws of numbers according to several criteria and let randomness/chance decide.

### How to make a random number selection?

Indicate the type of numbers to draw:

- according to an interval: select numbers between $a$ and $b$

Example: Draw $N$ digits between $1$ and $100$

- according to a size: select numbers with a certain number of digits

- according to a list: select numbers from a given list

### What is a random number sample without replacement?

A draw without replacement specifies that a picked number can not be picked a second time.

Example: Draws of $3$ numbers between $1$ and $5$ could be $4,2,3$ or $1,5,2$ but never $1,2,2$ (the $2$ having been picked a first time, it is not put back into play)

During a draw without remplacement, it is not possible to pick more than $N$ numbers in a range of size $N$

Example: A selection of $100$ numbers between $1$ and $20$ is impossible without replacement

### What is a random number sample with replacement?

A draw with replacement specifies that a picked number may be picked one or more times.

Example: Draws of $3$ numbers between $1$ and $5$ could be $4,2,3$ or $1,5,2$ but also $1,2,2$ (the $2$ having been picked a first time, it is put back into play and can stand out)

During a draw with replacement, it is possible to pick more than $N$ numbers in a range of size $N$

Example: A selection of $100$ numbers between $1$ and $20$ is possible with replacement
