What the random number generator wheel does

This random number generator wheel draws a fair random whole number from any range you set. Enter a minimum and a maximum, press Spin, and the wheel flickers through a few candidate numbers before settling on the result — a tiny bit of suspense that makes it handy for classrooms, giveaways, raffles, board games and any moment where you want a number picked for you rather than choosing one yourself.

Every result is an integer between your minimum and maximum, inclusive of both ends. The draw uses the browser's built-in random number generator, and each number in the range has an equal chance of coming up on any given spin.

How to use it

Set the Minimum and Maximum fields — they default to 1 and 100. Press Spin to draw a number. The big result lands in the centre of the wheel, and the last eight spins are kept in the Recent spins row below so you can see what has already come up. Spin as many times as you like; each draw is independent of the last.

Notes on the range

The range is inclusive, so a range of 1 to 6 behaves exactly like a dice roll and can return any value from 1 through 6. If you set the minimum higher than the maximum the wheel will not spin and a short warning appears — just correct the numbers and try again. Results are not deduplicated, so the same number can legitimately appear twice in a row. Everything runs locally in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

Are the numbers from the wheel truly random?

They use the browser's built-in pseudo-random generator, which is more than fair for games, draws and classroom use. Every number in your range has an equal chance each spin.

Does the range include the minimum and maximum?

Yes. The range is inclusive of both ends, so a range of 1 to 6 can return 1, 6, or anything in between — exactly like rolling a die.

Can the same number come up twice?

Yes. Each spin is independent, so repeats are possible and expected over many spins. The tool does not remove numbers that have already appeared.

How many results does the history keep?

The Recent spins row shows your last eight results. Older spins drop off as new ones come in.
