In Excel, the random number generator is =RAND()
Produces a number between 0 and 1, inclusive. Some peole dislikie its amount
of randomness, but for class purposes, it seems to work well.
2000 x 100 cells to get your sampel set is going to be big, but I think
do-able.
Or, set up say 100 of the 100 sets. Then re-calculate 20 times.
