Usually applied to accounting, so I will answer based on accounting. If a company has 3000 accounts numbered from 1 to 3000. Lets say you are to look at 100 files. 3000/100 = 30, random sampling is not choosing every 30th account. That does not give an equal chance of selecting each file. File 101 would never be selected. This is a biased sampling. You must use some kind of random number generator to select the 100 files to look at so that every file has an equal probability of being reviewed.
