Abstract: The singularity of the specific heat is studied for the dilution (J>J'>0) type and Gaussian type random Ising models using the Pfaffian method numerically. The type of singularity at the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic phase boundary is studied using the standard regression method using data up to $600 \times 601$ system size. It is shown that the logarithmic type singularity is more reliable than the double-logarithmic type and cusp type singularities. The critical temperatures are estimated accurately for both the dilution type and Gaussian type random Ising models. A phase diagram relating strength of the randomness and temperature is also presented.
