Would it be possible to program an Arduino Uno to output 5 distinct random numbers to 5 7-segment displays, or would I need additional hardware? If so, what additional hardware would be needed?
Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I'm new to the Arduino community
By 5 distinct random numbers, do you mean that none of the 5 digits should be the same? Are they hex numbers of decimal? Does the pseudorandom number given by random() give you what you want, or do you need a 'true random number'?
ps, it's the right place.
It sounds possible but it needs a bit more detail. What is the range of numbers? And what do you mean by "distinct"? If you mean all 5 must be different then they aren't truly random. If the numbers are all random then the basic laws of chance mean that at some point all 5 will be the same number.
