Number wheel

A number wheel is a spinner wheel with numbers on the slices. Use it when you're drawing numbers rather than names and you want everyone to watch the spin.

Common uses:

• Raffles: draw ticket numbers, with winner removal so each number wins only once.
• Class: call on students by their number, pick which question to start with or which page to open.
• Math practice: random numbers for times tables, rounding or odd and even.
• Games and workouts: how many steps, reps or minutes.

If you just need a number with no animation, the random number generator is quicker. The number wheel is better when the spin is part of the fun.

The number panel takes three values: from, to and step. A few examples:

Setting	Numbers on the wheel
1 to 100, step 1	1, 2, 3 … 100
1 to 75, step 1	bingo numbers, 75 slices
0 to 100, step 10	0, 10, 20 … 100
2 to 20, step 2	even numbers from 2 to 20
5 to 60, step 5	minutes or reps

The generator puts up to 1,000 numbers on the wheel at once; paste them in by hand and the wheel takes up to 5,000 lines. You can edit the list afterwards: remove numbers, or weight them, so *7 2 comes up twice as often.

The stopping point is chosen by your browser's cryptographic random number generator when the spin starts, so spin time and click timing don't matter. With equal slices, each number's chance is 1 divided by how many numbers are on the wheel:

Numbers on the wheel	Chance per number
1–10	10%
1–20	5%
1–50	2%
1–75	1.33%
1–100	1%

With winner removal on, each spin leaves one fewer number, so every raffle ticket can win only once. With it off, the same number can come up again; on a 1–100 wheel, the chance of a repeat on the next spin is 1%.

• Times tables: set 1 to 10, spin twice and say the product. It makes a great speed round.
• Rounding: 0 to 1,000 in steps of 7; round the result to the nearest ten or hundred.
• Odd or even: 1 to 50; students guess before the wheel stops.
• Question picker: put the question numbers from a worksheet on the wheel and turn on winner removal.
• Workouts: 5 to 30 in steps of 5 for reps or seconds.

You can mix text with numbers, like "10 – bonus question", and color slices one by one, so a points wheel for a quiz is easy to build.

1. Set the range to match the tickets you sold, say 1 to 250.
2. Turn on automatic winner removal.
3. Delete the numbers of any unsold tickets.
4. Go full screen and spin once for each prize.
5. Winning numbers are saved with the time in the history, and you can download them as a CSV file.

Every wheel feature works here too: themes and custom colors, five sound sets, confetti, full screen (Space or Enter to spin), winner removal, saved wheels, history with CSV export and a share link. This page saves its own list separately, so it won't overwrite your list on spin the wheel.
