dq.rand_real

rand_real(
    key: PRNGKeyArray,
    shape: int | tuple[int, ...],
    *,
    min: float = 0.0,
    max: float = 1.0
) -> Array

Returns an array of uniformly distributed random real numbers.

Each element of the returned array is sampled uniformly in \([\text{min}, \text{max})\).

Parameters

• key –

  A PRNG key used as the random key.

• shape (int or tuple of ints) –

  Shape of the returned array.

• min –

  Minimum (inclusive) value.

• max –

  Maximum (exclusive) value.

Returns

(array of shape (*shape)) Random real number array.

Examples

>>> key = jax.random.PRNGKey(42)
>>> dq.rand_real(key, (2, 5), max=5.0)
Array([[3.22 , 1.613, 0.967, 4.432, 4.21 ],
       [0.96 , 1.726, 1.262, 3.16 , 3.274]], dtype=float32)
