Golang : Gonum standard normal random numbers example
Putting this simple example here for my own future reference. Just another way of generating random numbers beside using math/rand
.
In the code example below, we learn how to generate random numbers using the gonum.org/v1/gonum/stat/distuv
package.
Here you go!
package main
import (
"fmt"
"gonum.org/v1/gonum/stat/distuv"
)
func main() {
n := 1000 // number of simulations
// Create a standard normal (mean = 0, stdev = 1)
// https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.random.standard_normal.html
//dist := distuv.Normal{
// Mu: 0, // Mean of the normal distribution
// Sigma: 1, // Standard deviation of the normal distribution
//}
// use the defined variable
dist := distuv.UnitNormal.
z := make([]float64, n)
// Generate some random numbers from standard normal distribution
for i := range z {
z[i] = dist.Rand()
}
fmt.Println(z)
}
