pub const NORMAL: Any;
Expand description
Generates “normal” floats.
These are finite values where the first bit of the mantissa is an
implied 1
. When positive, this represents the range
MIN_POSITIVE
through MAX
, both inclusive.
Generated values are uniform over the discrete floating-point space, which means the numeric distribution is an inverse exponential step function. For example, values between 1.0 and 2.0 are generated with the same frequency as values between 2.0 and 4.0, even though the latter covers twice the numeric range.
If neither POSITIVE
nor NEGATIVE
is OR’ed with this constant,
POSITIVE
is implied.
