> Just say you code in any language at all to roll some dice (just using dice as an example), after 600,000 rolls, I bet each number would have been rolled around 100,000 times, which to me, seems exactly what you expect.
Bad example. Because the author specified "some dice", we can assume more than one die, in which case some numbers have a greater chance to appear than others, in a series of fair "random" throws.
It's a bad sign that the author of a piece about randomness isn't aware of the systematic behavior of his chosen example, a behavior biased in favor of certain outcomes.
