Abstract
A random number generator determines the stop positions of display means of entertainment machines and of gambling machines. The random number generator is a component of the control unit which assumes the sequential play control. A uniform stopping of the rotating reel body is made possible and the stop positions cannot be reconstructed and predicted. In order to stop the rotating reel body in a non-reconstructable but uniform way in specific symbol-combination-displaying rest positions, a disjoint subset of the set of numbers accessible by the pseudo-random number generator is coordinated to each win class. Subsequently, a pseudo-random number is generated by the pseudo-random number generator and a win class is associated to this pseudo-random number. The symbol combination of the thus determined win class to be displayed is subsequently displayed with the rotating reel bodies stopped in position displaying symbols associated with the win class.
