``` $rand = $this->psl['crypt/rand']; for ($i=0; $i<10000; $i++) { $num = floor($rand->int(0, 1000000) / 1000); if (isset($used[$num])) { $used[$num]++; } else { $used[$num] = 1; } } ksort($used); print_r($used); ``` Here is the output. As you can see it is pretty much a standard normal distribution curve right in the middle of the range: ``` Array ( [479] => 1 [480] => 2 [481] => 1 [482] => 1 [483] => 4 [484] => 11 [485] => 26 [486] => 26 [487] => 63 [488] => 89 [489] => 162 [490] => 225 [491] => 345 [492] => 401 [493] => 509 [494] => 617 [495] => 770 [496] => 792 [497] => 853 [498] => 896 [499] => 830 [500] => 738 [501] => 675 [502] => 489 [503] => 411 [504] => 333 [505] => 253 [506] => 212 [507] => 91 [508] => 73 [509] => 51 [510] => 25 [511] => 12 [512] => 5 [513] => 6 [514] => 1 [518] => 1 ) ``` Why not just use mt_rand()?
