NAME

       r.surf.random   -  Produces  a  raster surface map of uniform random deviates with defined
       range.

KEYWORDS

       raster, surface, random

SYNOPSIS

       r.surf.random
       r.surf.random --help
       r.surf.random  [-i]  output=name   [min=float]    [max=float]    [--overwrite]    [--help]
       [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       -i
           Create an integer raster map

       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       output=name [required]
           Name for output raster map

       min=float
           Minimum random value
           Default: 0

       max=float
           Maximum random value
           Default: 100

DESCRIPTION

       r.surf.random  produces  a  raster map layer of uniform random deviates whose range can be
       expressed by the user. It is essentially the same  as  r.surf.gauss,  but  uses  a  linear
       random number generator instead.  It uses the random number generator drand48() or rand(),
       depending on the user’s platform.

EXAMPLE

       g.region -p n=228500 s=215000 w=630000 e=645000 res=10
       r.surf.random out=random min=0 max=100
       # check result
       r.univar random
       Figure: Random surface example (min: 10; max: 100)

       With the histogram tool the cell values versus count can be shown.
