Simulating the Beta Decay of Nuclei

I used your random number page to get truly random numbers between 0–99 in order to study the Monte Carlo method for arithmetic solution of problems and to simulate the beta decay of nuclei. Thanks a lot, it saved me the trouble of having to input into MS Excel, 500 numbers, which were pseudo-random, anyway.

Dear Mr. Random,

I used your random generator. I am an office specialist at a University department. It is my responsibility to enter and close out all the accounts on our department copier. The copier does not allow me to actually erase existing accounts. Since you need a 8-digit passcode to access your account and use the copier, I instead ‘close’ the account by changing the passcode on that account to something the previous user will not know.

This month I'll have to do around 200 such entries on the copier. I got sick of devising my own numbers, so I searched on the internet for a random number producer, and I found you. It was fun producing numbers. I definitely fulfilled my geek quota for the next year.
