I am trying to work with random numbers drawn from the normal
distribution. I thought something like the code below should do this but
normrnd cannot be found. Possibly I am not loading the correct package?
Thanks
Fritz
=============================
pkg load statistics
random("normal", 5, 2, [10, 20])
....
error: 'normrnd' undefined near line 155 column 16
error: called from random at line 155 column 14
Hi
Apparently, I'm able to get the output after running your commands on the
dev branch. Can you tell which version, OS etc. are you using for Octave?
