â Frequently Asked Questions
Is the random selection truly fair and unbiased?
+
Yes! Our random picker uses JavaScript's cryptographically secure random number generator to ensure completely fair and unbiased selections. Each entry has an exactly equal probability of being chosen, making it perfect for contests, classroom activities, and any situation requiring impartial selection.
Can I prevent the same name from being picked multiple times?
+
Currently, each pick is independent, so the same entry can be selected multiple times. However, you can manually remove selected entries from your list after each pick, or use the "Remove Duplicates" feature to ensure each name appears only once in your original list before making selections.
What's the maximum number of entries I can add?
+
There's no strict limit on entries - you can add hundreds or even thousands of names, numbers, or items. The tool efficiently handles large lists and maintains fair randomization regardless of list size. For very large lists, the selection process remains fast and reliable.
Can I save my lists for future use?
+
While the tool doesn't automatically save lists between sessions, you can easily copy your entries from the text area and paste them into a document for future use. You can also export your selection history to keep records of past picks and winners.
What are some practical uses for this random picker?
+
