Generation of gaussian distributed pseudo random numbers.
- Usage
rand(m {, s {, seed {, nr {, nc}}}})
- m
- mean value of the gaussian distribution
- s
- standard deviation of the gaussian distibution (default=1)
- seed
- if this value is not equal 0, it is used to initialize the random number generator (default=0)
- nr
- number of rows of the result (default=1)
- nc
- number of columns of the result (default=1)
- Result 2
- A numeric object r with nr rows and nc columns. Each element of r is set to a gaussian distibuted pseudo random number with mean m and standard deviation s.
