Jeep,
Technically it could be possible to build in a "true" RNG into a gaming machine (generated from, perhaps, natural noise generated by a machine component), but suffice it to say that it's relatively impractical.
So gaming machines use algebraic functions ("pseudo"-random number generator) to generate a stream of numbers that are relatively indistinguishable from a random stream when appropriate statistical tests are applied.

I seem to remember reading, I think, VP random referred to as pseudorandom number generator. Maybe I am remembering wrong. Is it correct term, does it exist as the term or is it different than random as in a live
deck of cards as opposed to electronic deck of cards?
