Please explain how using a PRNG is any different mathematically.

PRNG is necessary because true RNG is physically impossible. PRNG means it may be possible for a super knowledgeable being to figure out what a number generated is, given perfect knowledge of the function's inputs and the processes by which is generates the end-result pseudorandom number (neither of which we have). This means that we need to be very careful how we go about doing this for purposes of encryption, gambling, etc. Most large organizations use a PRNG based on the mathemagic of prime numbers, which makes them virtually entirely random from any normal human being's perspective.

None of this has any bearing on the mathematics of probablity.

Please read me.
