Return a random number between zero (inclusive) and n (exclusive), using the default random source. The numbers returned have a uniform distribution.
Return a random number in (0,1), using the default random source. The numbers returned have a uniform distribution.
A random source from which random-integer and random-real
have been derived using random-source-make-integers and
random-source-make-reals (see SRFI-27 Random Number Generators
for those procedures). Note that an assignment to
default-random-source does not change random-integer or
random-real; it is also strongly recommended not to assign a new
value.
