Two random versions of the arithmetic-geometric mean of Gauss, Lagrange and Legendre are defined. Almost sure convergence and nondegeneracy are proved. These random arithmetic-geometric means in turn define two random versions of \(\pi\). Based on numerical simulations, inequalities and equalities are conjectured. A special case is proved. The authors consider the work as a first step in a more general study of nonlinear iterations with random parameters, heading towards a possible marriage between nonlinear dynamical systems and stochastic processes.
