How it is calculated
With no repeats, the list is shuffled first. With repeats, each draw stands alone, and the same item can come out twice.
Each line is equally likely
Where the numbers come from
- List
- How many to pick
- No repeats
Example
From a list of names you can draw one item, or several different ones.
Questions
Blank lines?
They are skipped.
Order in the result?
This is the order of the draw, not an alphabetical sort.
Can a team use it?
Yes. If you need whole groups, open the tool that splits a list into groups.
