The RNG or The Random Number Generator

Though there still may be lots of interesting facts that according to some amateur influence the outcome of the game, the result itself depends upon the RNG. This device is used to eliminate the predictability of the gambling game, it generates numbers randomnly without any sequence.

When it comes to slot machines, the RNG is the one and only device that selects the speed, the time each reel spins and the time when it stops is different all the time and no factor can make it stop earlier or later.

The way the RNG works is that it generates numbers randomnly all the time, with a rate of 100 or 1000 per second, and when the player presses the button "play", the latest number is used. This way the result depends only on the exact second when the player starts gambling.

There is also such thing as a pseudorandom number generator. This device unlike the real one repeats the sequence of numbers and may therefore be predictable. This may happen in case of a programming error as machines with such pRNG's can be beaten easily. All in all, most slot machine manufacturers make sure the RNG is random and fair and it is later on continuously tested by various services to avoid fraud and misunderstandings.
