This randomiser is an improvement on my original Solid State Randomiser. It uses CLNE(SPRK) as a source of random power to replicate a classic MERC randomiser, with good results. It has no moving parts whatsoever.

  appears to be slightly biased toward right output of each unit

  you have really evolved a mercury randomizer. this is actually 2x better than mercury because mercury can split into two parts because of the heat from the sparks, so nice work. +1

  Good work +1

  Really cool. Usefull too for saves with gravity and whatnot. Tho why do you have it in a Gaussian/Natural distribution config?

  I have added it to the histograph save per your request. thanks for submiting it. What an interesting area of research has blossomed.

  @konsole. first let me say nice improvement and +1. Of course I ran the single 1x2 module on my tester. after 10000 input pulses there were only 9390 total output pulses at BTRY spark rate. This is probably because neither switch is on when the input pulse happens, ~6.1% of the time.

  Put some in a row, each with their own power source, and get each one to randomly make 1 or 0 for 1 bit of a binary number. Then convert that number to decimal; it will be unbiased.

  Ok, a Gaussian curve generator then.

  Not exactly a randomiser, since it tends to output towards the middle. Otherwise it's a great idea, gave it a +1
