Computer Generated shoes vs real

[dasenbrj]

How much difference is there in count trends in programs like CV verses the real thing? The cheaper ones, like free smartphone apps, are very unrealistic, but is there a difference in the high end stuff?

Depends on the setting you choose. In CVBJ you can choose to have biased shoes or not. It's up to you!

Most of the cheap apps use a RNG that is fine for practice but not suitable for simulation.

Wouldn't any computer simulation use an RNG in one way or another?

Yes, but many apps use a simple one that is not good enough for simulations. They are "random enough" for practicing but after millions/billions of hands the results will become skewed. For example, the default RNG for most programs (like Excel and most programming languages) is not good enough for simulations.

What about the Java method Math.random()?

No, that function uses a linear congruential generator which is not very good for simulations.

Yikes, I have some revisions to make. Any suggestions for an RGN in the Java language?

Right, gotcha, thanks for the clarification Sonny.

Simplest way for you to change it: http://www.cs.gmu.edu/~sean/research/mersenne/MersenneTwister.java
