Edit Question
Title
Body
I just learned about random function. To my understanding, random function takes a value of type which is an instance of RandomGen and returns a random value whose value we can specify. On the other hand, mksdGen takes an Int and generates a random generator which random function needs. I was trying to generate random Bool values. In order to do that, I made a function randomBool . randomBool :: Int -> Bool randomBool = fst . random . mkStdGen Then I found a lot more True s than False s with small numbers. And I was curious about it and checked as following > length $ takeWhile randomBool [1..] 53667 I think this means that for the first 53667 positive integers, random . mkStdGen returns True , which do not seem to be very random to me. Is it very normal? Or am I doing something wrong that make True happen more easily?
