Because if you put that in a loop you will get a series like:
3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5...

Just curious... Why is this more random than
(getSystemTimeInMilliseconds() % 10)

A random generator will not always (or even usually) produce a permutation
of the possible values before repeating.
If you call my function 10 million times and tally up the results, you will
get a distribution with about a million of each value, as close as you
would expect for a random
@don : awesome +1 . I was not aware of George Marsaglia's Multiply
With Carry generator. But it is soo clll . If you have any good link
for its proof or explanation of the idea behind it then please mention it.
I never knew generating random number can be few lines of code :)
Thanks :)
