Is Randomized Algorithm Nondeterministic?

A randomized algorithm can be viewed as a nondeterministic algorithm that has a probability distribution for every nondeterministic choice. To simplify the matter one usually considers only the random choices from two possibilities, each with the probability 1/2.

Is random non-deterministic?

Randomized algorithms are like nondeterministic algorithms, but instead of 'allowing' the choice between 0 and 1 at certain points, this choice is determined by a random coin toss at the time that the choice has to be made (which may differ from run to run, or when the same choice has to be made again later on during ...

Is random deterministic?

(True) Random Number generator

Theorized in statistical mathematics, the notion of randomness exists as a concept. ... Such a form of randomness cannot exist in a world governed by determinism under the laws of physics.
