Using The Random Number Function - Casio FX-82AU PLUS Using Manual

Press C when you have completed the data entry stage. Don‛t panic when the
scores disappear.
The process for finding the mean and standard deviation is the
same as outlined in the example using scores without frequencies. In the scores
with frequencies example the mean is 5.1 and the standard deviation is 1.03.
The random number function
The calculator has two random number features. Ran# generates 3-digit pseudo
random numbers between 0 and 1. RanInt generates random integers in a specified
domain.
Using Ran#
If you want the number to be displayed as a decimal set the calculator to work in
LineIO. In MathIO the random numbers are displayed as fractions. Press
q.p and a random decimal will be displayed. Each time you press p another
random number will be displayed.
Random number formulas
Random numbers can be incorporated into calculations.
For example, the formula 1 + 2 ´ Ran# will generate random numbers between 1 and
3. Each press of p will generate another random value between 1 and 3.
The RanInt function
To simulate the result of rolling a normal 6-sided die the formula RanInt#(1,6) is
required. Enter this formula as Q.1q)6)p. Each time you press
p another die simulation will be displayed.
The formula RanInt#(1,6) + RanInt#(1,6) simulates the results of rolling a pair of
dice and adding the numbers showing.
