# Random Selection

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page covers the **Random Selection node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It selects components purely by chance with an adjustable probability — the uniform counterpart to the clustered Noise Selection.

This function is similar to *Noise Selection*, except that a purely random function is used here. The selection density can be controlled by a **Chance** value.

Random Selection is similar to Noise Selection, but can select points as well as polygons.
