Abstract
Some of the requirements for producing a random series are discussed. Mechanical and electronic devices have been constructed that try to produce randomness in selection, but very few pass the rigorous tests applied by the statisticians. Three types are mentioned and an electronic method is described in detail. Reference is made to the use of the selector in psychical research.
