Random sampling in numpy | random() function

Last Updated : 26 Feb, 2019
numpy.random.random() is one of the function for doing random sampling in numpy. It returns an array of specified shape and fills it with random floats in the half-open interval [0.0, 1.0).
Syntax : numpy.random.random(size=None) Parameters : size : [int or tuple of ints, optional] Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single value is returned. Return : Array of random floats in the interval [0.0, 1.0). or a single such random float if size not provided.
