P08 - How to Generate Random ID ? javascript interview problem asked in storable.
Key Characteristics:
Range: The generated number is always in the range [0, 1), meaning it includes 0 but excludes 1.
Uniform Distribution: Each number in the range has an equal probability of being chosen.
Pseudo-Randomness: It is not truly random but determined by an algorithm, which makes it predictable if the same seed is used (though JavaScript does not expose seeding by default).
**IMPORTANT NOTE
How Does It Work Internally?
Math.random typically uses algorithms like the Mersenne Twister or a linear congruential generator to produce a sequence of pseudo-random numbers. These algorithms rely on initial seeds to start the generation process, which makes them deterministic. The exact implementation depends on the JavaScript engine (e.g., V8 in Chrome).
