title: Predict the Seed of Javascript's Math.random
body: <p>Okay, so I'm doing some research on how random numbers are generated with the Math.random method. So far I learned that it starts with a "random" seed, and that seed is plugged into some complex equation to create a random number. If the seed is always the same, will the outcome always be the same?</p>
  
  <p>I heard that the seeds for Math.random are generated through the current time, is that correct? They must use the current time all the way down to the mili-seconds or something, because if you didn't you would get the same outcome.</p>
  
  <p>What exactly is the seed? Is it the time such as "10:45" or the time AND date such as "10:45 11/8/12" or some combination?</p>
  
  <p>How can I find the seed, so I can predict the output?</p>
  
  <p>I want to be able to plug this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>alert(Math.floor((Math.random()*10)+1));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>into my url bar, and be able to predict the result. Is that possible?</p>
