For Minecraft especially, there are websites [1] [2] [non-primary source needed] and articles, [3] [4] dedicated to sharing seeds which have been found to generate interesting maps. The effect of loading a map originally generated in Minecraft 1.6.4 in Minecraft 1.7.2. The map seed is unchanged, but the map generation algorithm has changed ...

Rotenberg [3] [4] A generalisation of the Lehmer generator and historically the most influential and studied generator. Lagged Fibonacci generator (LFG) 1958 G. J. Mitchell and D. P. Moore [5]

Depending on your browser, it's also possible to load a random page using a keyboard shortcut (in Firefox , Edge , and Chrome Alt-Shift + X ).
Random.org (stylized as RANDOM.ORG) is a website that produces random numbers based on atmospheric noise. [1] In addition to generating random numbers in a specified range and subject to a specified probability distribution, which is the most commonly done activity on the site, it has free tools to simulate events such as flipping coins, shuffling cards, and rolling dice.
Inside the rainforest biome in Biosphere 2 in 2009. One view of Biosphere 2 was that it was "the most exciting scientific project to be undertaken in the United States since President John F.
