This result  is an experimental random number generator.
It uses the PSLQ Bailey Pi digits rational polynomial
to generate digits in the 0 to 9 range
 using a process that loses information , but generally behaves like the 
Pi digits.
It is not Markov, in that there is no previous behavior involved in 
calculating the next
random number.

(* Bailey formula with digit drop base 80*)
(* base 10 random number generator that isn't Markov *)
(* use integer seed as the number of digits in to start calculation*)
(* other PSLQ functions of transcendental numbers could be used to do 
this same kind of random number*)
f[n_]=Floor[Mod[80^n*(4/(8*n+1)-2/(8*n+4)-1/(8*n+5)-1/(8*n+6))/16^n,10]]
Digits=4000;rdpi=Table[f[n],{n,0,Digits}];
c1=Drop[FoldList[Plus,0,Sign[Drop[rdpi,1]-Drop[rdpi,-1]]],1];
ListPlot[c1,PlotJoined->True];
(* Rowe Count*)
d1=Flatten@{0,Length/@Split[Sort@c1], 0}
Dimensions[d1][[1]]
ListPlot[d1,PlotJoined->True];
