rand distribution

[chulio]

Hello,

What kind of distribution rand() function has ?

Sorry if the question is stupid.


Thanks.

I don't know for sure. But if I were to design it, I'd make it normal distribution.

uniform across the range of int.

Is there any library available for generating numbers following a specific distribution (like poisson, bernoulli, etc ) ?

Thanks.
