We use random.org in our Exploring Computer Science during our Algorithms unit. We use the string generator to make random passwords to test to see how complexity and length changes the amount of time taken to ‘crack’ the password. We use the integer generator to try out One Time Pad Encryption and we also use the coin flipper during our discussions of true vs pseudo random discussions. They have been a great resource and supportive of our efforts for over a decade!

I write and use molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulators which have their own pseudo-random number generators (for portability and reproducibility). These require the user to input a random number seed. If I want to perform an ensemble of N statistically independent runs (e.g., with different initial conditions), I need N independent seeds. So I use your site to generate seeds to paste into my input script, i.e., your random generator generates random seeds for input to a pseudo-random generator. Say that 5 times fast.
