I just posted a comparison with calculating std deviations for various methods - using os.urandom, SystemRandom.choice with seeding and without seeding.
I saw them
They all seem to have slightly different distributions.
No they don't. Just run those tests again and you will see that you cannot put them in any order or behaviour. They are all correct now, except that you cannot seed SystemRandom, as it is *not* a PRNG (at least here, it is a wrapper for /dev/random)
