Randomization description
One of the randomization methods is using Excel's RANDBETWEEN function. This function allows us to generate random numbers. To produce a random number in this study with sample size 54, between two numbers 1 and 54 use the = Randbetween function (1,54). This function creates a column of random numbers between 1 and 54. The rand () function selects numbers with equal probability in this interval, so the chance of choosing any number in this interval is equal to the other numbers. This means that each patient is assigned to one of two treatments, respectively. These data are 54 patients randomly assigned to two treatments, 1 and 2 (27 patients each). The sample numbers in the first and second groups are as follows: (15, 6,37,41, 23, 43, 13,35,10, 12,51,28,4,17, 26,38,20,33,11, 48, 36, 39.49, 47.8 34.22) (30, 52,27,19,42,18,9,24,40,53,1, 44, 2, 50, 45, 46,3,7,32,25, 31,54,21, 14,29 16, 5)
