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 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.
