Entries on the wheel

Set a range, fill the wheel with it, and spin for one number. Nothing repeats unless you ask it to, and nothing is uploaded.

When is a number wheel better than a random number generator?

When other people are watching. A generator prints an answer; a wheel narrows to one over four seconds in front of the room, and everybody sees the range it came from. That is the whole difference, and it is why a number wheel turns up in classrooms, stand-ups and live streams rather than a one-line script.

It also leaves the range on screen afterwards. The numbers stay on the rim, so anyone can count them, check that both ends are there, and see that the segment that came up was no wider than the rest. A printed figure carries none of that.

What else could draw this?

If what you need is a letter rather than a figure, the letter wheel is the same rim with A to Z on it, and a straight yes or no is the yes/no wheel. For pulling a numbered ticket in front of an audience, the giveaway draw starts from this wheel with the copy and the log that job needs.

About the number wheel

Type the two bounds into From and To and press Fill the wheel. Both ends are included, so 1 to 10 puts ten numbers on the rim. A range typed backwards counts down instead of producing nothing.

Switch to elimination mode. Each number leaves the wheel as it is drawn, so a run of five spins gives five different numbers in the order they came out, with a log you can export.

Large enough that readability gives out first. Past roughly ninety numbers a segment is thinner than four degrees of arc and carries no label at all, so the rim reads as colour and the list beside it is the version anybody can check.

For an informal one, yes: the source is the browser's cryptographic generator and every draw is logged with its own identifier. For a draw with legal or financial consequences, use a process your regulator recognises.

Copy the link, add ?embed=1, and the page becomes the wheel and the drawn number alone — the right shape for an OBS browser source or a slide. Adding &bg=transparent drops the stage background so your scene shows through behind the wheel.
