When I shuffle a deck of cards and put it down on the table the top card doesn't change anymore. Yet anybody will consider the first card to be random. In practice randomness is about lack of knowledge not about actual randomness or processes. (Edit: Sorry, but this clickbait title redefining randomness as something other than what everybody understands it to be annoyed me.) |

Randomness is perhaps a description of correlation? Which obviously relates to probability, prediction of uncertain outcomes, but maybe more general?..
