[Scilab-users] create random values between [-1,1]

[Arvid Rosén]

That will not generate an uniform distribution over the range.

This will be uniform:
n = 100;
a = 2*rand(n,1) - 1;

Cheers,
Arvid

Hi

In order to simulate dimensional tolerances in +/-, I’m using the following workaround :
n = 100;
a = rand(n,1) – rand(n,1);

Of course I need to increase the N value to the domain … is there a more “clever” way ?

Thanks

Paul
