how do you get a deterministic system to spit out random numbers? If you can isn't that a bit disconcerting?

Has a good chapter on the subject matter
The problem with spitting out consecutive digits of pi is that you have indexed them to a non-random variable in n.
We do a pretty good job at approximating randomness with computers, but the quality of the random numbers is often questionable. This is of great importance in Monte Carlo methods. For one of the better random number generators, read up on the mersenne twister.
