naginterfaces.library.rand.dist_​uniform01

naginterfaces.library.rand.dist_uniform01(n, statecomm)

dist_uniform01 generates a vector of pseudorandom numbers taken from a uniform distribution between $0$ and $1$.

For full information please refer to the NAG Library document for g05sa

Parameters

nint

$n$, the number of pseudorandom numbers to be generated.

statecommdict, RNG communication object, modified in place

RNG communication structure.

This argument must have been initialized by a prior call to init_repeat() or init_nonrepeat().

Returns

xfloat, ndarray, shape $\left(n\right)$

The $n$ pseudorandom numbers from a uniform distribution over the half closed interval $(0,1]$.

Raises

NagValueError

(errno $1$)

On entry, $n=⟨value⟩$.

Constraint: $n\ge 0$.

(errno $2$)

On entry, $statecomm$[‘state’] vector has been corrupted or not initialized.

Notes

dist_uniform01 generates $n$ values from a uniform distribution over the half closed interval $(0,1]$.

One of the initialization functions init_repeat() (for a repeatable sequence if computed sequentially) or init_nonrepeat() (for a non-repeatable sequence) must be called prior to the first call to dist_uniform01.
