  • How to pick numbers at random from a given set of numbers in c#

    The Random class defined in the .NET Framework provides functionality to generate pseudo-random number. According to MSDN, the current implementation of the Random class is based on Donald E. Knuth's subtractive random number generator algorithm. The random number generation starts from a seed value. If the same seed is used repeatedly, the same series of numbers is generated. One way to produce different sequences is to make the seed value time-dependent, thereby producing a different series with each new instance of Random.
