public class Uniform
extends Generator
The class Uniform inherits from Generator and is useful to draw numbers with uniform probability in the real segment [a,b].

Constructor Index

o Uniform(double, double)
o Uniform(long, double, double)
o Uniform(RandomEngine, double, double)

Method Index

o density(double)
Return the value of the density in the given point
o draw()
Draws a value with a uniform probability in real segment [a,b]
o setParam(double, double)
Resets generator parameters (reordered if a > b)
o type()
Abstract method that allows to identify the type of the value.

Constructors
