They're actually what's known as " pseudo random numbers, " generated by algorithms.

它们实际上是由算法产生的“伪机数”。

Alright, let's define a list of numbers, numbers, with a bunch of random numbers 3, 6, 2, 8, 4 and 10.

吧，让我们定义数字列表，数字，组机数 3、6、2、8、4 和 10。

Even when you get a random number from a computer, it's not as random as you might think.

即使你从电脑上得到机数，它也不像你想象的那样机。

All of these have random numbers next to them to denote point values.

所有这些旁边都有机数来表示点值。

It measures quantum effects to produce a billion random numbers per second.

它测量量子效应以每秒产生亿机数。

It's actually going to generate the random numbers according to this probability distribution function.

它实际上会根据这概率分布函数生成机数。

So, it's a random number; it's not a very equal number.

的？ 所以，这是机数； 这不是非常相等的数字。

They are just random numbers, they don’t mean anything.

它们只是机数， 没有任何意义。

For example, let's say you're in a setting where you have a random number that equals 0 with 50% probability, and the rest of the time, it's some positive number according to a distribution that looks like half of a bell curve.

例如， 假设你在种情况下， 有机数等于0的概率是50%，其余时间它是根据类似半钟形曲线的分布产生的正数。

You know, some folks who are really, really don't think this industry is working at all, you know, sort of publicly have said like, you know what, just use a random number generator because that's what these AI tools do.

你知道，有些人真的，真的认为这行业根本行不通，他们公开表示，你知道吗，干脆用机数生成器算了， 因为这些AI工具干的就是这。

The most significant would be for random sampling because, of course, in order to take a random sample, after all, you need random numbers.

最重要的是机抽样， 因为当然，为了机抽样，毕竟你需要机数。

They knew on average it would be 200 rounds, but there was a random number generator that prevented them from knowing with certainty.

他们知道平均需要 200 轮，但有机数生成器让他们无法确定。

But we can see what it can do by asking a question like, what is the square root of some random number?

不过， 我们可以通过提问简单问题来了解它的能力， 比如，某机数的平方根是多少？

It's called Stadium 974, and  that's not a random number – that's how many containers  were needed to build it.

它叫做 Stadium 974，这不是机数——那是建造它需要多少集装箱。

Sumner, could we go ahead and put up a random number on the screen here?

萨姆纳，我们能不能在屏幕上放机数？

When you brought up Anders Ericsson's original research with training someone to memorize random numbers, it does make me think about just now living in a digital era where we all have access to so much information all the time.

当您提到 Anders Ericsson 关于训练某人记住机数的原始研究时，它确实让我想起了现在生活在数字时代， 我们所有人都可以时访问如此多的信息。

The random number generator in Excel was used to generate 80 random numbers from a normal distribution with an average of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.

Excel 中的机数生成器用于根据正态分布生成 80 机数， 平均值为 0， 标准差为 1。

So I just changed those to some random numbers just to let you know there were references there this was a very well cited introduction section.

所以我只是把它们改成了些机数，只是为了让你知道那里有参考文献，这是引用非常的引言部分。

For years, researchers have been looking at building true random number generators.

多年来， 研究人员直在研究构建真正的机数生成器。

So we use this function to essentially generate random numbers for us.

所以我们使用这函数来生成机数。
