: You could have a good RNG and yet get exactly 100 points by simply checking for duplicates and continuing until you have 100 points (or alternatively, make a list of all points, random-shuffle it, and take the first 100 items from the resulting list).
: BTW, the revised description isn't quite right: The points don't overlap; you get the ''same'' point several times. --[[User:Ce|Ce]] 16:31, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
