DESCRIPTION

This package consists of commands to generate pseudo-random number generators. These new commands deliver

For example:

set p [::simulation::random::prng_Normal -1.0 10.0]

produces a new command (whose name is stored in the variable "p") that generates normally distributed numbers with a mean of -1.0 and a standard deviation of 10.0.

PROCEDURES

The package defines the following public procedures for discrete distributions:

The package defines the following public procedures for continuous distributions:

The package defines the following public procedures for random point sets:
