k Random Number Generation (Ran#)
This function generates a 10-digit truly random or sequentially random number that is greater
than zero and less than 1.
• A truly random number is generated if you do not specify anything for the argument.
Example
Operation
Ran# (Generates a random number.)
K
6(g)3(PROB)4(Ran#)w
(Each press of w generates a new random
w
number.)
w
• Specifying an argument from 1 to 9 generates random numbers based on that sequence.
• Specifying an argument of 0 initializes the sequence.*

Changing to a different sequence or
generating a totally random number (without
an argument) initializes the sequence.
