:The randomizer in this game appears to behave the same way as a standard memoryless randomizer. To what detail do you want to know? Do you want a formula that generates a piece sequence with the same statistics (try <code>nextPiece = (rand() & 0x7FFF) * 7 / 32768;</code>), or do you want a formula that generates the exact piece sequence that the game makes ([[Tetris (Sega)#Power-on Pattern|a la Sega Tetris from 1988]])? --[[User:Tepples|Tepples]] 22:54, 5 March 2007 (EST)

Tetromino randomizer?

How does the Tetromino randomizer work? Esachs 20:59, 5 March 2007 (EST)

The randomizer in this game appears to behave the same way as a standard memoryless randomizer. To what detail do you want to know? Do you want a formula that generates a piece sequence with the same statistics (try nextPiece = (rand() & 0x7FFF) * 7 / 32768;), or do you want a formula that generates the exact piece sequence that the game makes (a la Sega Tetris from 1988)? --Tepples 22:54, 5 March 2007 (EST)
