randomisers
Tools producing unpredictability
Randomisers is the British spelling of randomizers—devices, algorithms, or mechanisms that introduce random selection into a process.
In computing, a randomiser generates unpredictable values for games, simulations, or security applications.
In research, randomisers assign subjects to groups without bias: The trial used a randomiser to allocate participants to treatment or control.
