- "Returns a value sampled from the range 0.0 <= x < 1.0 using a
uniform probability distribution"
- "Returns a value sampled from the range min <= x <= max using a
uniform probability distribution"
- "Returns a value sampled from the range -infinity < x < infinity
using a normal probability distribution with the given parameters,..."
?
