This page describes how to use random (to produce pseudo-random values) in ConTeXt and MetaPost. The `uniformdeviate` function in MetaPost, by default, uses a seeded value. This is useful to generate the "same" random results each time the final product is generated, but hampers creating books that differ from each other on successive generations.

* {{cmd|getrandomnumber}} - Generates a pseudo-random number each time.
