The following numbers are from a random number generator, and I am confident that there is some kind of pattern or equation that could be applied to the way it is generating. Unfortunately I don't have requred intellectual capabilities to figure it out so all help would be appreciated. The sequence is...

2, 1, 18, 15, 1, 36, 19, 11, 35, 26, 5, 29, 5, 9, 11, 30, 36, 8, 27, 29, 1, 15, 28, 22, 4, 29, 35, 5, 25, 28, 16, 9, 4, 14, 11, 23, 1, 28, 25, 18, 16, 10, 32, 17, 24, 1, 30, 10, 15, 25, 35, 32, 7, 34, 29, 27, 35, 9 ...

The answer does not need to be exact even if it could be worked out in such a way that the next number is between a choice of say 5-10 so long as the prediction is accurate.

Many thanks

LOL actually no, my friend has made a roulette program and claims its foolproof. However I don't believe him and I am determined to find a glitch so any help will be appreciated. Thanks
