uniform

sherpa.utils.random.uniform(rng: Generator | RandomState | None, low: float, high: float, size: Literal[None]) → float

sherpa.utils.random.uniform(rng: Generator | RandomState | None, low: float, high: float, size: int | Sequence[int] | ndarray) → ndarray

Create a random value within a uniform range.

Parameters:

• rng (numpy.random.Generator, numpy.random.RandomState, or None) – Determines how the random numbers are created. If set to None then the numpy.random.uniform routine is used.

• low – The range [low, high].

• high – The range [low, high].

• size – The shape and size of the return.

Returns:

value

Return type:

number or ndarray
