Frequently asked questions
How does the random line picker work?
You paste a list of items (one per line) into the text box and click the button. The tool splits your text into individual lines and uses a random number generator to select one line at random. Every item in your list has an equal chance of being picked.
Is the random pick truly fair?
Yes. The selection uses JavaScript's built-in Math.random() function which produces a uniformly distributed random number, giving every line in your list an exactly equal probability of being selected.
Can I pick more than one random line at a time?
Currently the tool picks one line per click. To pick multiple winners, just click the button multiple times. Each click is an independent random draw.
Is my list saved or sent to a server?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Your list is never uploaded, stored, or shared. When you close or refresh the page, the list is gone.
How many lines can I add to the list?
There is no hard limit. The tool handles hundreds or even thousands of lines without any slowdown, since all processing happens instantly in your browser.
Can I embed this tool on my own website?
