- ## usage: weibull_rnd (alpha, sigma [, r, c])
- ##
- ## weibull_rnd (alpha, sigma) returns a matrix of random samples from
- ## the Weibull distribution with parameters alpha and sigma. The size of
- ## the matrix is the common size of alpha and sigma.
- ##
- ## weibull_rnd (alpha, sigma, r, c) returns an r by c matrix of random
- ## samples from the Weibull distribution with parameters alpha and sigma
- ## which must be scalar or of size r by c.
