Numworks seems to use a normal distribution where numbers around .5 are chosen more frequently than numbers approaching 0 or .999999 The probability of a particular random number in other machines is about equal throughout the range.

Quite possible, but can't find any notes about it in the manual. Anyway, pretty unusual.

Are other calculators known to behave like this?
