vRngUniform Continuous Distribution Generators
Generates random numbers with uniform distribution.
status = vsRngUniform( method, stream, n, r, a, b );
status = vdRngUniform( method, stream, n, r, a, b );
- mkl.h
The vRngUniform function generates random numbers uniformly distributed over the interval [a, b), where a, b are the left and right bounds of the interval, respectively, and a, b∈R ; a < b.
The probability density function is given by:
The cumulative distribution function is as follows:
