Flip, Roll, Pick
Three tools open this page: a coin, a six-sided die and a number from 1 to 100. Every other page here is one of those, fixed to a single range, dice count or number of flips.
Ready
Each flip is an independent 50/50 draw. A run of five or six the same way is normal in a hundred flips — that is what surprises people most. The tally keeps counting across single flips, so you can watch it settle.

What the three tools actually give you
The coin lands heads half the time and tails half the time, and that stays true after any run of either. The die shows each of its six faces 16.67 per cent of the time. The number box covers 1 to 100 with both ends included, so every value has a 1 per cent chance.
The mistake that costs people money
Adding dice together does not spread the odds evenly. Two dice have 36 combinations. Six of them total 7 and only one totals 12, which makes 7 six times as likely. So 2d6 is not a fair way to draw a number from 2 to 12, and it can never give you 1 at all. For a flat range, use the number generator.
Repeats arrive early
Draw thirteen numbers from 1 to 100 and there is a 55.7 per cent chance that two of them match. At twelve draws it is 49.7 per cent, near enough a coin flip. A repeat is not a stuck generator. Ranges are smaller than they feel, and every draw starts from the full range again.
The four directories
- Coin flip – one flip, or 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 1000 at once, plus heads or tails and a yes or no.
- Dice roller – d4 up to d100, and one to six ordinary dice at a time with the total worked out.
- Random number generator – fixed pages from 1 to 3 through to 1 to 1000, or type your own range.
- Random picker – paste a list and it draws one line, splits the list into teams, or gives you a letter.
What none of this is for
Every result here comes from your browser’s Math.random(). That is fine for who goes first, which seat, which question, or anything you are genuinely indifferent about. It is not secure. Do not build a PIN, a password, a voucher code or a paid prize draw on it, and do not treat a result as a witnessed toss: the page keeps no record and no timestamp of what it showed you.
