Because if I do a random number, it repeats itself when the application is run again.
runs and shows me 8,4,1,2 I stop the application I run it again and I get it again 8,4,1,2 are random but the same goes.
Why isn’t this done automatically? Is there a reason the default is consistent random?

This is normal in most programming languages. Numbers are not random, they are pseudo-random. To get a different ‘sequence’ of pseudo random numbers you have to seed the randomizer, as per the the answer above.
