func ExpFloat64 ¶
func ExpFloat64() float64
ExpFloat64 returns an exponentially distributed float64 in the range (0, +[math.MaxFloat64]] with an exponential distribution whose rate parameter (lambda) is 1 and whose mean is 1/lambda (1) from the default Source. To produce a distribution with a different rate parameter, callers can adjust the output using:
sample = ExpFloat64() / desiredRateParameter

func Int() int
Int returns a non-negative pseudo-random int from the default Source.

func Int31() int32
Int31 returns a non-negative pseudo-random 31-bit integer as an int32 from the default Source.
func Int31n ¶
func Int31n(n int32) int32
Int31n returns, as an int32, a non-negative pseudo-random number in the half-open interval [0,n) from the default Source. It panics if n <= 0.
func Int63 ¶
func Int63() int64
Int63 returns a non-negative pseudo-random 63-bit integer as an int64 from the default Source.
func Int63n ¶
func Int63n(n int64) int64

▸ Example
func NormFloat64 ¶
func NormFloat64() float64
NormFloat64 returns a normally distributed float64 in the range [-math.MaxFloat64, +[math.MaxFloat64]] with standard normal distribution (mean = 0, stddev = 1) from the default Source. To produce a different normal distribution, callers can adjust the output using:
sample = NormFloat64() * desiredStdDev + desiredMean
func Perm ¶
func Perm(n int) []int
Perm returns, as a slice of n ints, a pseudo-random permutation of the integers in the half-open interval [0,n) from the default Source.
▸ Example
func Read ¶ 1.6
func Read(p []byte) (n int, err error)
Read generates len(p) random bytes from the default Source and writes them into p. It always returns len(p) and a nil error. Read, unlike the Rand.Read method, is safe for concurrent use.
Deprecated: For almost all use cases, crypto/rand.Read is more appropriate. If a deterministic source is required, use math/rand/v2.ChaCha8.Read.
func Seed ¶
func Seed(seed int64)
Seed uses the provided seed value to initialize the default Source to a deterministic state. Seed values that have the same remainder when divided by 2³¹-1 generate the same pseudo-random sequence. Seed, unlike the Rand.Seed method, is safe for concurrent use.
If Seed is not called, the generator is seeded randomly at program startup.
Prior to Go 1.20, the generator was seeded like Seed(1) at program startup. To force the old behavior, call Seed(1) at program startup. Alternately, set GODEBUG=randautoseed=0 in the environment before making any calls to functions in this package.
Deprecated: As of Go 1.20 there is no reason to call Seed with a random value. Programs that call Seed with a known value to get a specific sequence of results should use New(NewSource(seed)) to obtain a local random generator.
func Shuffle ¶ 1.10
func Shuffle(n int, swap func(i, j int))
Shuffle pseudo-randomizes the order of elements using the default Source. n is the number of elements. Shuffle panics if n < 0. swap swaps the elements with indexes i and j.

sample = ExpFloat64() / desiredRateParameter

type Source ¶
A Source represents a source of uniformly-distributed pseudo-random int64 values in the range [0, 1<<63).
A Source is not safe for concurrent use by multiple goroutines.
