Call: PREPARE_RND_FUNCTION


function

This argument, of type String contains the function according to which random numbers are to be generated.

The function should use X as variable. If the function does not depend on X, then RND_UNIFORM is a more appropriate random number generator to use.

The function is allowed to be zero at individual points, but must not be negative anywhere over the specified range.

[No default, this is a mandatory argument.]


range

With xmin and xmax, you indicate the smallest and largest random number that RND_FUNCTION will generate.

Both are Numbers.

[No default, these arguments are mandatory.]
