## Frequently asked questions

### Is astrology scientific?

No. Controlled tests have not shown that zodiac signs predict personality or life events. Astrology content on this site is offered for entertainment and cultural interest, not as guidance for decisions.

### How does a computer pick a random number?

It uses an algorithm called a pseudorandom number generator, started from an unpredictable seed, to produce numbers with no practical pattern. Those numbers are then mapped onto the range you choose, such as 1 to 100, so that each value is equally likely.
