Is Random in programming similar to real "Random"

Question

I made a game where you roll a die and it will tell you how many rolls it took to reach over 1000. Most of the results are in the same range (250-300, 6 sided die). Would I receive similar results if I were to actually repeatedly roll a die for 1000 points?

Answer 1

I think so.
Besides, maybe ... if you were to do it with hand, and you hold the dice on the same side everytime, and roll it at the same pressure and direction everytime, that might change a little.

But, for the most part, I think it would be the same.

Answer 2

1000 / avg_dice_value
avg_dice_value = (1+2+3+4+5+6)/6 = 3.5
1000/3.5 ~ 286

The amount of random throws would likely be close to 286.
