I type in random I get al azar. I type al azar and random doesn't come up. I looked in a dictionary and it said fortuito.

The general term is "al azar"

a random selection - una selección hecha al azar.

a wall built of random stones - un moro hecho con pierdras eligidas al azar.

However, the term aleatorio can be used in connection with computers as in "random access", acceso aleatorio.

Another random could be, a random shot - un disparo hecho sin apuntar.

So you can see that context is relevant in this case.

Do you mean impulsive? chaotic?disorganized? These might be some English synonyms you could consider translating.
