Different Types of Randomness
- If you use a standard random number generator, you typically
get each option equally likely. It's like rolling a dice.
- If you pick a number from 1 to 100, you're equally likely to
get a 7 as 32.
- You can also use gaussian distributions. These are normal
distributions.
- You can typically select the mean and the standard deviation.
- You can do it in multiple dimensions.
- There are lots of other types of distributions (e.g. zipf).
- Feel free to implement them yourself.
