oneapi::mkl::rng::uniform (Continuous)
Generates random numbers with uniform distribution.
Description
The class object is used in
oneapi::mkl::rng::generate
function to provide 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:
