This interface represent a normalized random generator for scalars. Normalized generator provide null mean and unit standard deviation scalars.

/** * This interface represent a normalized random generator for * scalars. * Normalized generator provide null mean and unit standard deviation scalars. * @since 1.2 */
public interface NormalizedRandomGenerator {
Generate a random scalar with null mean and unit standard deviation.

This method does not specify the shape of the distribution, it is the implementing class that provides it. The only contract here is to generate numbers with null mean and unit standard deviation.

Returns:a random scalar with null mean and unit standard deviation
