cdef class Generator:
    """
    Generator(bit_generator)

    Container for the BitGenerators.

    `Generator` exposes a number of methods for generating random
    numbers drawn from a variety of probability distributions. In addition to
    the distribution-specific arguments, each method takes a keyword argument
    `size` that defaults to ``None``. If `size` is ``None``, then a single
    value is generated and returned. If `size` is an integer, then a 1-D
    array filled with generated values is returned. If `size` is a tuple,
    then an array with that shape is filled and returned.

    The function :func:`numpy.random.default_rng` will instantiate
    a `Generator` with numpy's default `BitGenerator`.

    **No Compatibility Guarantee**

    `Generator` does not provide a version compatibility guarantee. In
    particular, as better algorithms evolve the bit stream may change.

    Parameters
    ----------
    bit_generator : BitGenerator
        BitGenerator to use as the core generator.

    Notes
    -----
    The Python stdlib module :external+python:mod:`random` contains
    pseudo-random number generator with a number of methods that are similar
    to the ones available in `Generator`.
    It uses Mersenne Twister, and this bit generator can
    be accessed using `MT19937`. `Generator`, besides being
    NumPy-aware, has the advantage that it provides a much larger number
    of probability distributions to choose from.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> from numpy.random import Generator, PCG64
    >>> rng = Generator(PCG64())
    >>> rng.standard_normal()
    -0.203  # random

        distribution function

                                     (1 - t)^{\\beta - 1} dt.

        It is often seen in Bayesian inference and order statistics.

            ``m * n * k`` samples are drawn.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``a`` and ``b`` are both scalars.

        Examples
        -------- 
        The beta distribution has mean a/(a+b). If ``a == b`` and both 
        are > 1, the distribution is symmetric with mean 0.5.

        Otherwise the distribution is skewed left or right according to
        whether ``a`` or ``b`` is greater. The distribution is mirror
        symmetric. See for example:
        
        >>> a, b, size = 2, 7, 10000

        exponential(scale=1.0, size=None)

        Draw samples from an exponential distribution.

        Its probability density function is

        .. math:: f(x; \\frac{1}{\\beta}) = \\frac{1}{\\beta} \\exp(-\\frac{x}{\\beta}),

        for ``x > 0`` and 0 elsewhere. :math:`\\beta` is the scale parameter,
        which is the inverse of the rate parameter :math:`\\lambda = 1/\\beta`.
        The rate parameter is an alternative, widely used parameterization
        of the exponential distribution [3]_.

        The exponential distribution is a continuous analogue of the
        geometric distribution.  It describes many common situations, such as
        the size of raindrops measured over many rainstorms [1]_, or the time
        between page requests to Wikipedia [2]_.

        Parameters
        ----------
        scale : float or array_like of floats
            The scale parameter, :math:`\\beta = 1/\\lambda`. Must be
            non-negative.
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``scale`` is a scalar.  Otherwise,
            ``np.array(scale).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized exponential distribution.

        Examples
        --------
        Assume a company has 10000 customer support agents and the time 
        between customer calls is exponentially distributed and that the 
        average time between customer calls is 4 minutes.

        >>> scale, size = 4, 10000
        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()
        >>> time_between_calls = rng.exponential(scale=scale, size=size)

        What is the probability that a customer will call in the next 
        4 to 5 minutes? 
        
        >>> x = ((time_between_calls < 5).sum())/size
        >>> y = ((time_between_calls < 4).sum())/size
        >>> x - y
        0.08  # may vary

        The corresponding distribution can be visualized as follows:

        >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
        >>> scale, size = 4, 10000
        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()
        >>> sample = rng.exponential(scale=scale, size=size)
        >>> count, bins, _ = plt.hist(sample, 30, density=True)
        >>> plt.plot(bins, scale**(-1)*np.exp(-scale**-1*bins), linewidth=2, color='r')
        >>> plt.show()

        standard_exponential(size=None, dtype=np.float64, method='zig', out=None)

        Draw samples from the standard exponential distribution.

        `standard_exponential` is identical to the exponential distribution
        with a scale parameter of 1.

        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.
        dtype : dtype, optional
            Desired dtype of the result, only `float64` and `float32` are supported.
            Byteorder must be native. The default value is np.float64.
        method : str, optional
            Either 'inv' or 'zig'. 'inv' uses the default inverse CDF method.
            'zig' uses the much faster Ziggurat method of Marsaglia and Tsang.
        out : ndarray, optional
            Alternative output array in which to place the result. If size is not None,
            it must have the same shape as the provided size and must match the type of
            the output values.

        Returns
        -------
        out : float or ndarray
            Drawn samples.

        Examples
        --------
        Output a 3x8000 array:

        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()

        integers(low, high=None, size=None, dtype=np.int64, endpoint=False)

        Return random integers from `low` (inclusive) to `high` (exclusive), or
        if endpoint=True, `low` (inclusive) to `high` (inclusive). Replaces
        `RandomState.randint` (with endpoint=False) and
        `RandomState.random_integers` (with endpoint=True)

        Return random integers from the "discrete uniform" distribution of
        the specified dtype. If `high` is None (the default), then results are
        from 0 to `low`.

        Parameters
        ----------
        low : int or array-like of ints
            Lowest (signed) integers to be drawn from the distribution (unless
            ``high=None``, in which case this parameter is 0 and this value is
            used for `high`).
        high : int or array-like of ints, optional
            If provided, one above the largest (signed) integer to be drawn
            from the distribution (see above for behavior if ``high=None``).
            If array-like, must contain integer values
        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.
        dtype : dtype, optional
            Desired dtype of the result. Byteorder must be native.
            The default value is np.int64.
        endpoint : bool, optional
            If true, sample from the interval [low, high] instead of the
            default [low, high)
            Defaults to False

        Returns
        -------
        out : int or ndarray of ints
            `size`-shaped array of random integers from the appropriate
            distribution, or a single such random int if `size` not provided.

        Notes
        -----
        When using broadcasting with uint64 dtypes, the maximum value (2**64)
        cannot be represented as a standard integer type. The high array (or
        low if high is None) must have object dtype, e.g., array([2**64]).

        Examples
        --------
        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()
        >>> rng.integers(2, size=10)
        array([1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0])  # random
        >>> rng.integers(1, size=10)
        array([0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0])

        Generate a 2 x 4 array of ints between 0 and 4, inclusive:

        >>> rng.integers(5, size=(2, 4))
        array([[4, 0, 2, 1],
               [3, 2, 2, 0]])  # random

        Generate a 1 x 3 array with 3 different upper bounds

        >>> rng.integers(1, [3, 5, 10])
        array([2, 2, 9])  # random

        Generate a 1 by 3 array with 3 different lower bounds

        >>> rng.integers([1, 5, 7], 10)
        array([9, 8, 7])  # random

        Generate a 2 by 4 array using broadcasting with dtype of uint8

        >>> rng.integers([1, 3, 5, 7], [[10], [20]], dtype=np.uint8)

        Generates a random sample from a given array

        Parameters
        ----------
        a : {array_like, int}
            If an ndarray, a random sample is generated from its elements.
            If an int, the random sample is generated from np.arange(a).
        size : {int, tuple[int]}, optional
            Output shape.  If the given shape is, e.g., ``(m, n, k)``, then
            ``m * n * k`` samples are drawn from the 1-d `a`. If `a` has more
            than one dimension, the `size` shape will be inserted into the
            `axis` dimension, so the output ``ndim`` will be ``a.ndim - 1 +
            len(size)``. Default is None, in which case a single value is
            returned.
        replace : bool, optional
            Whether the sample is with or without replacement. Default is True,
            meaning that a value of ``a`` can be selected multiple times.
        p : 1-D array_like, optional
            The probabilities associated with each entry in a.
            If not given, the sample assumes a uniform distribution over all
            entries in ``a``.
        axis : int, optional
            The axis along which the selection is performed. The default, 0,
            selects by row.
        shuffle : bool, optional
            Whether the sample is shuffled when sampling without replacement.
            Default is True, False provides a speedup.

        Returns
        -------
        samples : single item or ndarray
            The generated random samples

        Raises
        ------
        ValueError
            If a is an int and less than zero, if p is not 1-dimensional, if
            a is array-like with a size 0, if p is not a vector of
            probabilities, if a and p have different lengths, or if
            replace=False and the sample size is greater than the population
            size.

        See Also
        --------
        integers, shuffle, permutation

        Notes
        -----
        Setting user-specified probabilities through ``p`` uses a more general but less
        efficient sampler than the default. The general sampler produces a different sample
        than the optimized sampler even if each element of ``p`` is 1 / len(a).

        ``p`` must sum to 1 when cast to ``float64``. To ensure this, you may wish
        to normalize using ``p = p / np.sum(p, dtype=float)``.

        When passing ``a`` as an integer type and ``size`` is not specified, the return
        type is a native Python ``int``.

        Examples
        --------
        Generate a uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3:

        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()
        >>> rng.choice(5, 3)
        array([0, 3, 4]) # random
        >>> #This is equivalent to rng.integers(0,5,3)

        Generate a non-uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3:

        >>> rng.choice(5, 3, p=[0.1, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0])
        array([3, 3, 0]) # random

        Generate a uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size 3 without
        replacement:

        >>> rng.choice(5, 3, replace=False)
        array([3,1,0]) # random
        >>> #This is equivalent to rng.permutation(np.arange(5))[:3]

        Generate a uniform random sample from a 2-D array along the first
        axis (the default), without replacement:

        >>> rng.choice([[0, 1, 2], [3, 4, 5], [6, 7, 8]], 2, replace=False)
        array([[3, 4, 5], # random
               [0, 1, 2]])

        Generate a non-uniform random sample from np.arange(5) of size
        3 without replacement:

        >>> rng.choice(5, 3, replace=False, p=[0.1, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0])
        array([2, 3, 0]) # random

        Any of the above can be repeated with an arbitrary array-like
        instead of just integers. For instance:

        >>> aa_milne_arr = ['pooh', 'rabbit', 'piglet', 'Christopher']
        >>> rng.choice(aa_milne_arr, 5, p=[0.5, 0.1, 0.1, 0.3])

    def uniform(self, low=0.0, high=1.0, size=None):
        """
        uniform(low=0.0, high=1.0, size=None)

        Draw samples from a uniform distribution.

        Samples are uniformly distributed over the half-open interval
        ``[low, high)`` (includes low, but excludes high).  In other words,
        any value within the given interval is equally likely to be drawn
        by `uniform`.

        Parameters
        ----------
        low : float or array_like of floats, optional
            Lower boundary of the output interval.  All values generated will be
            greater than or equal to low.  The default value is 0.
        high : float or array_like of floats
            Upper boundary of the output interval.  All values generated will be
            less than high.  The high limit may be included in the returned array of 
            floats due to floating-point rounding in the equation 
            ``low + (high-low) * random_sample()``.  high - low must be 
            non-negative.  The default value is 1.0.
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``low`` and ``high`` are both scalars.
            Otherwise, ``np.broadcast(low, high).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized uniform distribution.

        See Also
        --------
        integers : Discrete uniform distribution, yielding integers.
        random : Floats uniformly distributed over ``[0, 1)``.

        Notes
        -----
        The probability density function of the uniform distribution is

        .. math:: p(x) = \\frac{1}{b - a}

        anywhere within the interval ``[a, b)``, and zero elsewhere.

        When ``high`` == ``low``, values of ``low`` will be returned.

        Examples
        --------

        normal(loc=0.0, scale=1.0, size=None)

        Draw random samples from a normal (Gaussian) distribution.

        The probability density function of the normal distribution, first
        derived by De Moivre and 200 years later by both Gauss and Laplace
        independently [2]_, is often called the bell curve because of
        its characteristic shape (see the example below).

        The normal distributions occurs often in nature.  For example, it
        describes the commonly occurring distribution of samples influenced
        by a large number of tiny, random disturbances, each with its own
        unique distribution [2]_.

        Parameters
        ----------
        loc : float or array_like of floats
            Mean ("centre") of the distribution.
        scale : float or array_like of floats
            Standard deviation (spread or "width") of the distribution. Must be
            non-negative.
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``loc`` and ``scale`` are both scalars.
            Otherwise, ``np.broadcast(loc, scale).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized normal distribution.

        See Also
        --------
        scipy.stats.norm : probability density function, distribution or
            cumulative density function, etc.

        Notes
        -----
        The probability density for the Gaussian distribution is

        .. math:: p(x) = \\frac{1}{\\sqrt{ 2 \\pi \\sigma^2 }}
                         e^{ - \\frac{ (x - \\mu)^2 } {2 \\sigma^2} },

        where :math:`\\mu` is the mean and :math:`\\sigma` the standard
        deviation. The square of the standard deviation, :math:`\\sigma^2`,
        is called the variance.

        The function has its peak at the mean, and its "spread" increases with
        the standard deviation (the function reaches 0.607 times its maximum at
        :math:`x + \\sigma` and :math:`x - \\sigma` [2]_).  This implies that
        :meth:`normal` is more likely to return samples lying close to the
        mean, rather than those far away.

        The probability density for the Gamma distribution is

        .. math:: p(x) = x^{k-1}\\frac{e^{-x/\\theta}}{\\theta^k\\Gamma(k)},

        where :math:`k` is the shape and :math:`\\theta` the scale,
        and :math:`\\Gamma` is the Gamma function.

        The Gamma distribution is often used to model the times to failure of
        electronic components, and arises naturally in processes for which the
        waiting times between Poisson distributed events are relevant.

        Samples are drawn from an F distribution with specified parameters,

        freedom in denominator), where both parameters must be greater than

        The random variate of the F distribution (also known as the

        variates.

        Parameters
        ----------
        dfnum : float or array_like of floats
            Degrees of freedom in numerator, must be > 0.
        dfden : float or array_like of float

        Notes
        -----
        The F statistic is used to compare in-group variances to between-group
        variances. Calculating the distribution depends on the sampling, and
        so it is a function of the respective degrees of freedom in the
        problem.  The variable `dfnum` is the number of samples minus one, the
        between-groups degrees of freedom, while `dfden` is the within-groups
        degrees of freedom, the sum of the number of samples in each group
        minus the number of groups.

        Examples
        --------
        An example from Glantz[1], pp 47-40:

        Two groups, children of diabetics (25 people) and children from people
        without diabetes (25 controls). Fasting blood glucose was measured,
        case group had a mean value of 86.1, controls had a mean value of
        82.2. Standard deviations were 2.09 and 2.49 respectively. Are these
        data consistent with the null hypothesis that the parents diabetic
        status does not affect their children's blood glucose levels?
        Calculating the F statistic from the data gives a value of 36.01.

        Draw samples from the distribution:

        >>> dfnum = 1. # between group degrees of freedom
        >>> dfden = 48. # within groups degrees of freedom
        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()
        >>> s = rng.f(dfnum, dfden, 1000)

        The lower bound for the top 1% of the samples is :

        >>> np.sort(s)[-10]
        7.61988120985 # random

        So there is about a 1% chance that the F statistic will exceed 7.62,
        the measured value is 36, so the null hypothesis is rejected at the 1%
        level.

            Output shape.  If the given shape is, e.g., ``(m, n, k)``, then

        Notes
        -----
        When calculating the power of an experiment (power = probability of
        rejecting the null hypothesis when a specific alternative is true) the
        non-central F statistic becomes important.  When the null hypothesis is
        true, the F statistic follows a central F distribution. When the null
        hypothesis is not true, then it follows a non-central F statistic.

        Also known as the Lorentz distribution.

        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

        Returns
        -------
        samples : ndarray or scalar
            The drawn samples.

        Notes
        -----
        The probability density function for the full Cauchy distribution is

        .. math:: P(x; x_0, \\gamma) = \\frac{1}{\\pi \\gamma \\bigl[ 1+
                  (\\frac{x-x_0}{\\gamma})^2 \\bigr] }

        and the Standard Cauchy distribution just sets :math:`x_0=0` and
        :math:`\\gamma=1`

        The Cauchy distribution arises in the solution to the driven harmonic
        oscillator problem, and also describes spectral line broadening. It
        also describes the distribution of values at which a line tilted at
        a random angle will cut the x axis.

        When studying hypothesis tests that assume normality, seeing how the
        tests perform on data from a Cauchy distribution is a good indicator of
        their sensitivity to a heavy-tailed distribution, since the Cauchy looks
        very much like a Gaussian distribution, but with heavier tails.

        Draw samples from a standard Student's t distribution with `df` degrees

        A special case of the hyperbolic distribution.  As `df` gets
        large, the result resembles that of the standard normal
        distribution (`standard_normal`).

        Parameters
        ----------
        df : float or array_like of floats
            Degrees of freedom, must be > 0.
        size : int or tuple of ints, optional

        Returns

        -----
        The probability density function for the t distribution is

        .. math:: P(x, df) = \\frac{\\Gamma(\\frac{df+1}{2})}{\\sqrt{\\pi df}
                  \\Gamma(\\frac{df}{2})}\\Bigl( 1+\\frac{x^2}{df} \\Bigr)^{-(df+1)/2}

        The t test is based on an assumption that the data come from a
        Normal distribution. The t test provides a way to test whether
        the sample mean (that is the mean calculated from the data) is
        a good estimate of the true mean.

        The derivation of the t-distribution was first published in
        1908 by William Gosset while working for the Guinness Brewery
        in Dublin. Due to proprietary issues, he had to publish under
        a pseudonym, and so he used the name Student.

        Examples
        --------
        From Dalgaard page 83 [1]_, suppose the daily energy intake for 11
        women in kilojoules (kJ) is:

        >>> intake = np.array([5260., 5470, 5640, 6180, 6390, 6515, 6805, 7515, \\
        ...                    7515, 8230, 8770])

        Does their energy intake deviate systematically from the recommended
        value of 7725 kJ? Our null hypothesis will be the absence of deviation,
        and the alternate hypothesis will be the presence of an effect that could be
        either positive or negative, hence making our test 2-tailed. 

        Because we are estimating the mean and we have N=11 values in our sample,
        we have N-1=10 degrees of freedom. We set our significance level to 95% and 
        compute the t statistic using the empirical mean and empirical standard 
        deviation of our intake. We use a ddof of 1 to base the computation of our 
        empirical standard deviation on an unbiased estimate of the variance (note:
        the final estimate is not unbiased due to the concave nature of the square 
        root).

        >>> np.mean(intake)
        6753.636363636364
        >>> intake.std(ddof=1)
        1142.1232221373727
        >>> t = (np.mean(intake)-7725)/(intake.std(ddof=1)/np.sqrt(len(intake)))
        >>> t
        -2.8207540608310198

        We draw 1000000 samples from Student's t distribution with the adequate
        degrees of freedom.

        >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()
        >>> s = rng.standard_t(10, size=1000000)
        >>> h = plt.hist(s, bins=100, density=True)

        Does our t statistic land in one of the two critical regions found at 
        both tails of the distribution?

        >>> np.sum(np.abs(t) < np.abs(s)) / float(len(s))
        0.018318  #random < 0.05, statistic is in critical region

        The probability value for this 2-tailed test is about 1.83%, which is 
        lower than the 5% pre-determined significance threshold. 

        Therefore, the probability of observing values as extreme as our intake
        conditionally on the null hypothesis being true is too low, and we reject 
        the null hypothesis of no deviation.

        -----
        The Weibull (or Type III asymptotic extreme value distribution
        for smallest values, SEV Type III, or Rosin-Rammler
        distribution) is one of a class of Generalized Extreme Value
        (GEV) distributions used in modeling extreme value problems.

        where :math:`a` is the shape and :math:`\\lambda` the scale.

        The function has its peak (the mode) at
        :math:`\\lambda(\\frac{a-1}{a})^{1/a}`.

        When ``a = 1``, the Weibull distribution reduces to the exponential

        .. math:: P(x; a) = ax^{a-1}, 0 \\le x \\le 1, a>0.

        The power function distribution is just the inverse of the Pareto
        distribution. It may also be seen as a special case of the Beta
        distribution.

        It is used, for example, in modeling the over-reporting of insurance
        claims.

        Draw samples from the Laplace or double exponential distribution with
        specified location (or mean) and scale (decay).

        The Laplace distribution is similar to the Gaussian/normal distribution,
        but is sharper at the peak and has fatter tails. It represents the
        difference between two independent, identically distributed exponential
        random variables.

        Parameters
        ----------
        loc : float or array_like of floats, optional
            The position, :math:`\\mu`, of the distribution peak. Default is 0.
        scale : float or array_like of floats, optional
            :math:`\\lambda`, the exponential decay. Default is 1. Must be non-
            negative.
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``loc`` and ``scale`` are both scalars.
            Otherwise, ``np.broadcast(loc, scale).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized Laplace distribution.

        Notes

        It has the probability density function

        .. math:: f(x; \\mu, \\lambda) = \\frac{1}{2\\lambda}
                                       \\exp\\left(-\\frac{|x - \\mu|}{\\lambda}\\right).

        The first law of Laplace, from 1774, states that the frequency
        of an error can be expressed as an exponential function of the
        absolute magnitude of the error, which leads to the Laplace
        distribution. For many problems in economics and health
        sciences, this distribution seems to model the data better
        than the standard Gaussian distribution.

        Notes
        -----
        The Gumbel (or Smallest Extreme Value (SEV) or the Smallest Extreme
        Value Type I) distribution is one of a class of Generalized Extreme
        Value (GEV) distributions used in modeling extreme value problems.
        The Gumbel is a special case of the Extreme Value Type I distribution
        for maximums from distributions with "exponential-like" tails.

        The probability density for the Gumbel distribution is

        .. math:: p(x) = \\frac{e^{-(x - \\mu)/ \\beta}}{\\beta} e^{ -e^{-(x - \\mu)/
                  \\beta}},

        where :math:`\\mu` is the mode, a location parameter, and
        :math:`\\beta` is the scale parameter.

        The Gumbel (named for German mathematician Emil Julius Gumbel) was used
        very early in the hydrology literature, for modeling the occurrence of
        flood events. It is also used for modeling maximum wind speed and
        rainfall rates.  It is a "fat-tailed" distribution - the probability of
        an event in the tail of the distribution is larger than if one used a
        Gaussian, hence the surprisingly frequent occurrence of 100-year
        floods. Floods were initially modeled as a Gaussian process, which
        underestimated the frequency of extreme events.

        It is one of a class of extreme value distributions, the Generalized
        Extreme Value (GEV) distributions, which also includes the Weibull and
        Frechet.

        The function has a mean of :math:`\\mu + 0.57721\\beta` and a variance
        of :math:`\\frac{\\pi^2}{6}\\beta^2`.

        A variable `x` has a log-normal distribution if `log(x)` is normally
        distributed.  The probability density function for the log-normal
        distribution is:

        .. math:: p(x) = \\frac{1}{\\sigma x \\sqrt{2\\pi}}
                         e^{(-\\frac{(ln(x)-\\mu)^2}{2\\sigma^2})}

        where :math:`\\mu` is the mean and :math:`\\sigma` is the standard
        deviation of the normally distributed logarithm of the variable.
        A log-normal distribution results if a random variable is the *product*
        of a large number of independent, identically-distributed variables in
        the same way that a normal distribution results if the variable is the
        *sum* of a large number of independent, identically-distributed
        variables.

        Parameters
        ----------
        scale : float or array_like of floats, optional
            Scale, also equals the mode. Must be non-negative. Default is 1.
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``scale`` is a scalar.  Otherwise,
            ``np.array(scale).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized Rayleigh distribution.

        Notes

        The probability density function for the Rayleigh distribution is

        .. math:: P(x;scale) = \\frac{x}{scale^2}e^{\\frac{-x^2}{2 \\cdotp scale^2}}

        The Rayleigh distribution would arise, for example, if the East
        and North components of the wind velocity had identical zero-mean
        Gaussian distributions.  Then the wind speed would have a Rayleigh
        distribution.

        wald(mean, scale, size=None)

        Draw samples from a Wald, or inverse Gaussian, distribution.

        As the scale approaches infinity, the distribution becomes more like a
        Gaussian. Some references claim that the Wald is an inverse Gaussian
        with mean equal to 1, but this is by no means universal.

        The inverse Gaussian distribution was first studied in relationship to
        Brownian motion. In 1956 M.C.K. Tweedie used the name inverse Gaussian
        because there is an inverse relationship between the time to cover a
        unit distance and distance covered in unit time.

        Parameters
        ----------
        mean : float or array_like of floats
            Distribution mean, must be > 0.
        scale : float or array_like of floats
            Scale parameter, must be > 0.
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``mean`` and ``scale`` are both scalars.
            Otherwise, ``np.broadcast(mean, scale).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized Wald distribution.

        Notes
        -----
        The probability density function for the Wald distribution is

        .. math:: P(x;mean,scale) = \\sqrt{\\frac{scale}{2\\pi x^3}}e^
                                    \\frac{-scale(x-mean)^2}{2\\cdotp mean^2x}

        As noted above the inverse Gaussian distribution first arise
        from attempts to model Brownian motion. It is also a
        competitor to the Weibull for use in reliability modeling and
        modeling stock returns and interest rate processes.

        The triangular distribution is a continuous probability
        distribution with lower limit left, peak at mode, and upper
        limit right. Unlike the other distributions, these parameters
        directly define the shape of the pdf.

        Parameters
        ----------
        left : float or array_like of floats
            Lower limit.
        mode : float or array_like of floats
            The value where the peak of the distribution occurs.
            The value must fulfill the condition ``left <= mode <= right``.
        right : float or array_like of floats
            Upper limit, must be larger than `left`.
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),

            are all scalars.  Otherwise, ``np.broadcast(left, mode, right).size``

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized triangular distribution.

        Notes

        The probability density function for the triangular distribution is

                  \\frac{2(x-l)}{(r-l)(m-l)}& \\text{for $l \\leq x \\leq m$},\\\\

                  0& \\text{otherwise}.
                  \\end{cases}

        The triangular distribution is often used in ill-defined
        problems where the underlying distribution is not known, but
        some knowledge of the limits and mode exists. Often it is used
        in simulations.

        Parameters

        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized binomial distribution, where

        See Also
        --------
        scipy.stats.binom : probability density function, distribution or
            cumulative density function, etc.

        Notes
        -----
        The probability mass function (PMF) for the binomial distribution is

        .. math:: P(N) = \\binom{n}{N}p^N(1-p)^{n-N},

        where :math:`n` is the number of trials, :math:`p` is the probability
        of success, and :math:`N` is the number of successes.

        When estimating the standard error of a proportion in a population by
        using a random sample, the normal distribution works well unless the
        product p*n <=5, where p = population proportion estimate, and n =
        number of samples, in which case the binomial distribution is used
        instead. For example, a sample of 15 people shows 4 who are left
        handed, and 11 who are right handed. Then p = 4/15 = 27%. 0.27*15 = 4,
        so the binomial distribution should be used in this case.

        Assume a company drills 9 wild-cat oil exploration wells, each with
        an estimated probability of success of ``p=0.1``. All nine wells fail. 
        What is the probability of that happening?

        Over ``size = 20,000`` trials the probability of this happening

        .. math:: P(N;n,p) = \\frac{\\Gamma(N+n)}{N!\\Gamma(n)}p^{n}(1-p)^{N},

        where :math:`n` is the number of successes, :math:`p` is the
        probability of success, :math:`N+n` is the number of trials, and
        :math:`\\Gamma` is the gamma function. When :math:`n` is an integer,
        :math:`\\frac{\\Gamma(N+n)}{N!\\Gamma(n)} = \\binom{N+n-1}{N}`, which is
        the more common form of this term in the pmf. The negative
        binomial distribution gives the probability of N failures given n
        successes, with a success on the last trial.

        If one throws a die repeatedly until the third time a "1" appears,
        then the probability distribution of the number of non-"1"s that
        appear before the third "1" is a negative binomial distribution.

        Because this method internally calls ``Generator.poisson`` with an
        intermediate random value, a ValueError is raised when the choice of 
        :math:`n` and :math:`p` would result in the mean + 10 sigma of the sampled
        intermediate distribution exceeding the max acceptable value of the 
        ``Generator.poisson`` method. This happens when :math:`p` is too low 
        (a lot of failures happen for every success) and :math:`n` is too big (
        a lot of successes are allowed).
        Therefore, the :math:`n` and :math:`p` values must satisfy the constraint:

        .. math:: n\\frac{1-p}{p}+10n\\sqrt{n}\\frac{1-p}{p}<2^{63}-1-10\\sqrt{2^{63}-1},

        Where the left side of the equation is the derived mean + 10 sigma of
        a sample from the gamma distribution internally used as the :math:`lam`
        parameter of a poisson sample, and the right side of the equation is
        the constraint for maximum value of :math:`lam` in ``Generator.poisson``.

        The Zipf distribution (also known as the zeta distribution) is a

        Bernoulli trials are experiments with one of two outcomes:

        Notes
        -----
        The probability mass function (PMF) for the Hypergeometric distribution is

        .. math:: P(x) = \\frac{\\binom{g}{x}\\binom{b}{n-x}}{\\binom{g+b}{n}},

        where :math:`0 \\le x \\le n` and :math:`n-b \\le x \\le g`

        for P(x) the probability of ``x`` good results in the drawn sample,
        g = `ngood`, b = `nbad`, and n = `nsample`.

        Consider an urn with black and white marbles in it, `ngood` of them
        are black and `nbad` are white. If you draw `nsample` balls without
        replacement, then the hypergeometric distribution describes the
        distribution of black balls in the drawn sample.

        Note that this distribution is very similar to the binomial
        distribution, except that in this case, samples are drawn without
        replacement, whereas in the Binomial case samples are drawn with
        replacement (or the sample space is infinite). As the sample space
        becomes large, this distribution approaches the binomial.

        The arguments `ngood` and `nbad` each must be less than `10**9`. For
        extremely large arguments, the algorithm that is used to compute the
        samples [4]_ breaks down because of loss of precision in floating point
        calculations.  For such large values, if `nsample` is not also large,
        the distribution can be approximated with the binomial distribution,
        `binomial(n=nsample, p=ngood/(ngood + nbad))`.

        Draw samples from a logarithmic series distribution.

        Samples are drawn from a log series distribution with specified
        shape parameter, 0 <= ``p`` < 1.

        Parameters
        ----------
        p : float or array_like of floats
            Shape parameter for the distribution.  Must be in the range [0, 1).
        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.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``p`` is a scalar.  Otherwise,
            ``np.array(p).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized logarithmic series distribution.

        The probability mass function for the Log Series distribution is

        .. math:: P(k) = \\frac{-p^k}{k \\ln(1-p)},

        where p = probability.

        The log series distribution is frequently used to represent species
        richness and occurrence, first proposed by Fisher, Corbet, and
        Williams in 1943 [2].  It may also be used to model the numbers of
        occupants seen in cars [3].

        Draw random samples from a multivariate normal distribution.

        The multivariate normal, multinormal or Gaussian distribution is a
        generalization of the one-dimensional normal distribution to higher
        dimensions.  Such a distribution is specified by its mean and
        covariance matrix.  These parameters are analogous to the mean
        (average or "center") and variance (the squared standard deviation,
        or "width") of the one-dimensional normal distribution.

        Parameters
        ----------
        mean : 1-D array_like, of length N
            Mean of the N-dimensional distribution.
        cov : 2-D array_like, of shape (N, N)
            Covariance matrix of the distribution. It must be symmetric and
            positive-semidefinite for proper sampling.
        size : int or tuple of ints, optional
            Given a shape of, for example, ``(m,n,k)``, ``m*n*k`` samples are
            generated, and packed in an `m`-by-`n`-by-`k` arrangement.  Because
            each sample is `N`-dimensional, the output shape is ``(m,n,k,N)``.
            If no shape is specified, a single (`N`-D) sample is returned.
        check_valid : { 'warn', 'raise', 'ignore' }, optional
            Behavior when the covariance matrix is not positive semidefinite.
        tol : float, optional
            Tolerance when checking the singular values in covariance matrix.
            cov is cast to double before the check.
        method : { 'svd', 'eigh', 'cholesky'}, optional
            The cov input is used to compute a factor matrix A such that
            ``A @ A.T = cov``. This argument is used to select the method
            used to compute the factor matrix A. The default method 'svd' is
            the slowest, while 'cholesky' is the fastest but less robust than
            the slowest method. The method `eigh` uses eigen decomposition to
            compute A and is faster than svd but slower than cholesky.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray
            The drawn samples, of shape *size*, if that was provided.  If not,
            the shape is ``(N,)``.

            In other words, each entry ``out[i,j,...,:]`` is an N-dimensional
            value drawn from the distribution.

        Notes
        -----
        The mean is a coordinate in N-dimensional space, which represents the
        location where samples are most likely to be generated.  This is
        analogous to the peak of the bell curve for the one-dimensional or
        univariate normal distribution.

        Covariance indicates the level to which two variables vary together.
        From the multivariate normal distribution, we draw N-dimensional
        samples, :math:`X = [x_1, x_2, ... x_N]`.  The covariance matrix
        element :math:`C_{ij}` is the covariance of :math:`x_i` and :math:`x_j`.
        The element :math:`C_{ii}` is the variance of :math:`x_i` (i.e. its
        "spread").

        Instead of specifying the full covariance matrix, popular
        approximations include:

        - Spherical covariance (`cov` is a multiple of the identity matrix)
        - Diagonal covariance (`cov` has non-negative elements, and only on
          the diagonal)

        This geometrical property can be seen in two dimensions by plotting
        generated data-points:

        >>> mean = [0, 0]
        >>> cov = [[1, 0], [0, 100]]  # diagonal covariance

        Diagonal covariance means that points are oriented along x or y-axis:

        >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()
        >>> x, y = rng.multivariate_normal(mean, cov, 5000).T
        >>> plt.plot(x, y, 'x')
        >>> plt.axis('equal')
        >>> plt.show()

        Note that the covariance matrix must be positive semidefinite (a.k.a.
        nonnegative-definite). Otherwise, the behavior of this method is
        undefined and backwards compatibility is not guaranteed.

        This function internally uses linear algebra routines, and thus results
        may not be identical (even up to precision) across architectures, OSes,
        or even builds. For example, this is likely if ``cov`` has multiple equal
        singular values and ``method`` is ``'svd'`` (default). In this case,
        ``method='cholesky'`` may be more robust.

        >>> x.shape
        (3, 3, 2)

        We can use a different method other than the default to factorize cov:

        >>> y = rng.multivariate_normal(mean, cov, (3, 3), method='cholesky')
        >>> y.shape
        (3, 3, 2)

        Here we generate 800 samples from the bivariate normal distribution
        with mean [0, 0] and covariance matrix [[6, -3], [-3, 3.5]].  The
        expected variances of the first and second components of the sample
        are 6 and 3.5, respectively, and the expected correlation
        coefficient is -3/sqrt(6*3.5) ≈ -0.65465.

        >>> cov = np.array([[6, -3], [-3, 3.5]])
        >>> pts = rng.multivariate_normal([0, 0], cov, size=800)

        Check that the mean, covariance, and correlation coefficient of the
        sample are close to the expected values:

        >>> pts.mean(axis=0)
        array([ 0.0326911 , -0.01280782])  # may vary
        >>> np.cov(pts.T)
        array([[ 5.96202397, -2.85602287],
               [-2.85602287,  3.47613949]])  # may vary
        >>> np.corrcoef(pts.T)[0, 1]
        -0.6273591314603949  # may vary

        We can visualize this data with a scatter plot.  The orientation
        of the point cloud illustrates the negative correlation of the
        components of this sample.

        multinomial(n, pvals, size=None)

        Draw samples from a multinomial distribution.

        The multinomial distribution is a multivariate generalization of the
        binomial distribution.  Take an experiment with one of ``p``
        possible outcomes.  An example of such an experiment is throwing a dice,
        where the outcome can be 1 through 6.  Each sample drawn from the
        distribution represents `n` such experiments.  Its values,
        ``X_i = [X_0, X_1, ..., X_p]``, represent the number of times the
        outcome was ``i``.

        Parameters
        ----------
        n : int or array-like of ints
            Number of experiments.
        pvals : array-like of floats
            Probabilities of each of the ``p`` different outcomes with shape
            ``(k0, k1, ..., kn, p)``. Each element ``pvals[i,j,...,:]`` must
            sum to 1 (however, the last element is always assumed to account
            for the remaining probability, as long as
            ``sum(pvals[..., :-1], axis=-1) <= 1.0``. Must have at least 1
            dimension where pvals.shape[-1] > 0.
        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 each with ``p`` elements. Default
            is None where the output size is determined by the broadcast shape
            of ``n`` and all by the final dimension of ``pvals``, which is
            denoted as ``b=(b0, b1, ..., bq)``. If size is not None, then it
            must be compatible with the broadcast shape ``b``. Specifically,
            size must have ``q`` or more elements and size[-(q-j):] must equal
            ``bj``.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray
            The drawn samples, of shape size, if provided. When size is
            provided, the output shape is size + (p,)  If not specified,
            the shape is determined by the broadcast shape of ``n`` and
            ``pvals``, ``(b0, b1, ..., bq)`` augmented with the dimension of
            the multinomial, ``p``, so that that output shape is
            ``(b0, b1, ..., bq, p)``.

            Each entry ``out[i,j,...,:]`` is a ``p``-dimensional value drawn
            from the distribution.

        Examples
        --------

        array([[4, 1, 7, 5, 2, 1]])  # random

        It landed 4 times on 1, once on 2, etc.

        Now, throw the dice 20 times, and 20 times again:

        >>> rng.multinomial(20, [1/6.]*6, size=2)
        array([[3, 4, 3, 3, 4, 3],
               [2, 4, 3, 4, 0, 7]])  # random

        For the first run, we threw 3 times 1, 4 times 2, etc.  For the second,
        we threw 2 times 1, 4 times 2, etc.

        Now, do one experiment throwing the dice 10 time, and 10 times again,

        The first array shows the outcomes of throwing the dice 10 times, and
        the second shows the outcomes from throwing the dice 20 times.

        A loaded die is more likely to land on number 6:

        Generate categorical random variates from two categories where the
        first has 3 outcomes and the second has 2.

        >>> rng.multinomial(1, [[.1, .5, .4 ], [.3, .7, .0]])

        The same output dimension can be produced using broadcasting.

        The probability inputs should be normalized. As an implementation
        detail, the value of the last entry is ignored and assumed to take
        up any leftover probability mass, but this should not be relied on.
        A biased coin which has twice as much weight on one side as on the
        other should be sampled like so:

        multivariate_hypergeometric(colors, nsample, size=None,
                                    method='marginals')

        Generate variates from a multivariate hypergeometric distribution.

        The multivariate hypergeometric distribution is a generalization
        of the hypergeometric distribution.

        Choose ``nsample`` items at random without replacement from a
        collection with ``N`` distinct types.  ``N`` is the length of
        ``colors``, and the values in ``colors`` are the number of occurrences
        of that type in the collection.  The total number of items in the
        collection is ``sum(colors)``.  Each random variate generated by this
        function is a vector of length ``N`` holding the counts of the
        different types that occurred in the ``nsample`` items.

        The name ``colors`` comes from a common description of the
        distribution: it is the probability distribution of the number of
        marbles of each color selected without replacement from an urn
        containing marbles of different colors; ``colors[i]`` is the number
        of marbles in the urn with color ``i``.

        Parameters
        ----------
        colors : sequence of integers
            The number of each type of item in the collection from which
            a sample is drawn.  The values in ``colors`` must be nonnegative.
            To avoid loss of precision in the algorithm, ``sum(colors)``
            must be less than ``10**9`` when `method` is "marginals".
        nsample : int
            The number of items selected.  ``nsample`` must not be greater
            than ``sum(colors)``.
        size : int or tuple of ints, optional
            The number of variates to generate, either an integer or a tuple
            holding the shape of the array of variates.  If the given size is,
            e.g., ``(k, m)``, then ``k * m`` variates are drawn, where one
            variate is a vector of length ``len(colors)``, and the return value
            has shape ``(k, m, len(colors))``.  If `size` is an integer, the
            output has shape ``(size, len(colors))``.  Default is None, in
            which case a single variate is returned as an array with shape
            ``(len(colors),)``.
        method : string, optional
            Specify the algorithm that is used to generate the variates.
            Must be 'count' or 'marginals' (the default).  See the Notes
            for a description of the methods.

        Returns
        -------
        variates : ndarray
            Array of variates drawn from the multivariate hypergeometric
            distribution.

        See Also
        --------
        hypergeometric : Draw samples from the (univariate) hypergeometric
            distribution.

        Notes
        -----
        The two methods do not return the same sequence of variates.

        The "count" algorithm is roughly equivalent to the following numpy
        code::

            choices = np.repeat(np.arange(len(colors)), colors)
            selection = np.random.choice(choices, nsample, replace=False)
            variate = np.bincount(selection, minlength=len(colors))

        The "count" algorithm uses a temporary array of integers with length
        ``sum(colors)``.

        The "marginals" algorithm generates a variate by using repeated
        calls to the univariate hypergeometric sampler.  It is roughly
        equivalent to::

            variate = np.zeros(len(colors), dtype=np.int64)
            # `remaining` is the cumulative sum of `colors` from the last
            # element to the first; e.g. if `colors` is [3, 1, 5], then
            # `remaining` is [9, 6, 5].
            remaining = np.cumsum(colors[::-1])[::-1]
            for i in range(len(colors)-1):
                if nsample < 1:
                    break
                variate[i] = hypergeometric(colors[i], remaining[i+1],
                                           nsample)
                nsample -= variate[i]
            variate[-1] = nsample

        The default method is "marginals".  For some cases (e.g. when
        `colors` contains relatively small integers), the "count" method
        can be significantly faster than the "marginals" method.  If
        performance of the algorithm is important, test the two methods
        with typical inputs to decide which works best.

    def dirichlet(self, object alpha, size=None):
        """
        dirichlet(alpha, size=None)

        Draw samples from the Dirichlet distribution.

        Draw `size` samples of dimension k from a Dirichlet distribution. A
        Dirichlet-distributed random variable can be seen as a multivariate
        generalization of a Beta distribution. The Dirichlet distribution
        is a conjugate prior of a multinomial distribution in Bayesian
        inference.

        Parameters
        ----------
        alpha : sequence of floats, length k
            Parameter of the distribution (length ``k`` for sample of
            length ``k``).
        size : int or tuple of ints, optional
            Output shape.  If the given shape is, e.g., ``(m, n)``, then
            ``m * n * k`` samples are drawn.  Default is None, in which case a
            vector of length ``k`` is returned.

        Returns
        -------
        samples : ndarray,
            The drawn samples, of shape ``(size, k)``.

        Raises
        ------
        ValueError
            If any value in ``alpha`` is less than zero

        Notes
        -----
        The Dirichlet distribution is a distribution over vectors
        :math:`x` that fulfil the conditions :math:`x_i>0` and
        :math:`\\sum_{i=1}^k x_i = 1`.

        The probability density function :math:`p` of a
        Dirichlet-distributed random vector :math:`X` is
        proportional to

        .. math:: p(x) \\propto \\prod_{i=1}^{k}{x^{\\alpha_i-1}_i},

        where :math:`\\alpha` is a vector containing the positive
        concentration parameters.

        The method uses the following property for computation: let :math:`Y`
        be a random vector which has components that follow a standard gamma
        distribution, then :math:`X = \\frac{1}{\\sum_{i=1}^k{Y_i}} Y`
        is Dirichlet-distributed

        Examples
        --------
        Taking an example cited in Wikipedia, this distribution can be used if
        one wanted to cut strings (each of initial length 1.0) into K pieces
        with different lengths, where each piece had, on average, a designated
        average length, but allowing some variation in the relative sizes of
        the pieces.

        permuted(x, axis=None, out=None)

        Randomly permute `x` along axis `axis`.

        Unlike `shuffle`, each slice along the given axis is shuffled
        independently of the others.

        Parameters
        ----------
        x : array_like, at least one-dimensional
            Array to be shuffled.
        axis : int, optional
            Slices of `x` in this axis are shuffled. Each slice
            is shuffled independently of the others.  If `axis` is
            None, the flattened array is shuffled.
        out : ndarray, optional
            If given, this is the destination of the shuffled array.
            If `out` is None, a shuffled copy of the array is returned.

        Returns
        -------
        ndarray
            If `out` is None, a shuffled copy of `x` is returned.
            Otherwise, the shuffled array is stored in `out`,
            and `out` is returned

        Notes
        -----
        An important distinction between methods ``shuffle``  and ``permuted`` is 
        how they both treat the ``axis`` parameter which can be found at 
        :ref:`generator-handling-axis-parameter`.

        Examples
        --------
        Create a `numpy.random.Generator` instance:

        >>> rng = np.random.default_rng()

        Create a test array:

        >>> x = np.arange(24).reshape(3, 8)
        >>> x
        array([[ 0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7],
               [ 8,  9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15],
               [16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23]])

        Shuffle the rows of `x`:

        >>> y = rng.permuted(x, axis=1)
        >>> y
        array([[ 4,  3,  6,  7,  1,  2,  5,  0],  # random
               [15, 10, 14,  9, 12, 11,  8, 13],
               [17, 16, 20, 21, 18, 22, 23, 19]])

        `x` has not been modified:

        >>> x
        array([[ 0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7],
               [ 8,  9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15],
               [16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23]])

        To shuffle the rows of `x` in-place, pass `x` as the `out`
        parameter:

        >>> y = rng.permuted(x, axis=1, out=x)
        >>> x
        array([[ 3,  0,  4,  7,  1,  6,  2,  5],  # random
               [ 8, 14, 13,  9, 12, 11, 15, 10],
               [17, 18, 16, 22, 19, 23, 20, 21]])

        Note that when the ``out`` parameter is given, the return
        value is ``out``:

        :ref:`generator-handling-axis-parameter`.

def default_rng(seed=None):
    """Construct a new Generator with the default BitGenerator (PCG64).

    Parameters
    ----------
    seed : {None, int, array_like[ints], SeedSequence, BitGenerator, Generator, RandomState}, optional
        A seed to initialize the `BitGenerator`. If None, then fresh,
        unpredictable entropy will be pulled from the OS. If an ``int`` or
        ``array_like[ints]`` is passed, then all values must be non-negative and will be
        passed to `SeedSequence` to derive the initial `BitGenerator` state. One may also
        pass in a `SeedSequence` instance.
        Additionally, when passed a `BitGenerator`, it will be wrapped by
        `Generator`. If passed a `Generator`, it will be returned unaltered.
        When passed a legacy `RandomState` instance it will be coerced to a `Generator`.

    Returns
    -------
    Generator
        The initialized generator object.

    Notes
    -----
    If ``seed`` is not a `BitGenerator` or a `Generator`, a new `BitGenerator`
    is instantiated. This function does not manage a default global instance.

    See :ref:`seeding_and_entropy` for more information about seeding.

    Examples
    --------
    `default_rng` is the recommended constructor for the random number class
    `Generator`. Here are several ways we can construct a random 
    number generator using `default_rng` and the `Generator` class. 

    Here we use `default_rng` to generate a random float:
 
    >>> import numpy as np
    >>> rng = np.random.default_rng(12345)
    >>> print(rng)
    Generator(PCG64)
    >>> rfloat = rng.random()
    >>> rfloat
    0.22733602246716966
    >>> type(rfloat)
    <class 'float'>
     
    Here we use `default_rng` to generate 3 random integers between 0 
    (inclusive) and 10 (exclusive):
        
    >>> import numpy as np
    >>> rng = np.random.default_rng(12345)
    >>> rints = rng.integers(low=0, high=10, size=3)
    >>> rints
    array([6, 2, 7])
    >>> type(rints[0])
    <class 'numpy.int64'>
    
    Here we specify a seed so that we have reproducible results:
    
    >>> import numpy as np
    >>> rng = np.random.default_rng(seed=42)
    >>> print(rng)
    Generator(PCG64)
    >>> arr1 = rng.random((3, 3))
    >>> arr1
    array([[0.77395605, 0.43887844, 0.85859792],
           [0.69736803, 0.09417735, 0.97562235],
           [0.7611397 , 0.78606431, 0.12811363]])

    If we exit and restart our Python interpreter, we'll see that we
    generate the same random numbers again:

    >>> import numpy as np
    >>> rng = np.random.default_rng(seed=42)
    >>> arr2 = rng.random((3, 3))
    >>> arr2
    array([[0.77395605, 0.43887844, 0.85859792],
           [0.69736803, 0.09417735, 0.97562235],
