How to generate random numbers using random and uniform functions of numpy in Python

Generating random numbers using random() and uniform() functions of numpy in Python

In Python, we can generate the random numbers using the random() and uniform() functions.

import sys

from numpy import *

random():

This function generates the random numbers between 0 and 1

Examples:

# generating random numbers with random() function

x = random.rand()

y = round(x, 2)

z = int(x)

print('The Random float number is:', x)

print('The rounded Random rounded is:', y)

print('The Random integer number is:', z)

# Output:

The Random float number is: 0.9742596051564375

The rounded Random rounded is: 0.97

The Random integer number is: 0

# generating a range of random numbers with random() function

x = random.rand(5)

print('The range of Random float numbers :', x)

# Output:

The range of Random float numbers : [0.11325172 0.98133899 0.49293905 0.65075536 0.57226817]

# generating a 2D array(2x3) of random numbers

x = random.rand(2, 3)

print('The array of Random float number is:\n', x)

# Output:

The array of Random float number is:

 [[0.48300304 0.52168378 0.54947105]

 [0.19087592 0.31312512 0.08560706]]

uniform():

This function generates the random numbers between 0 and 1, and also between a range.

Examples:

x1 = random.uniform()

y1 = round(x1, 2)

z1 = int(x1)

print('The uniform Random float number is:', x1)

print('The rounded uniform Random number is:', y1)

print('The uniform Random integer number is:', z1)

# Output:

The uniform Random float number is: 0.5535500459174607

The rounded uniform Random number is: 0.55

The uniform Random integer number is: 0

# Generating random numbers between a range with uniform() function

x2 = random.uniform(10, 20)

y2 = round(x2, 2)

z2 = int(x2)

print('The uniform Random float number between a range:', x2)

print('The rounded uniform Random number between a range:', y2)

print('The uniform Random integer number between a range:', z2)

# Output:

The uniform Random float number between a range: 10.836354827177807

The rounded uniform Random number between a range: 10.84

The uniform Random integer number between a range: 10
