Guido van Rossum e7b146fb3b The third and final doc-string sweep by Ka-Ping Yee. 
The attached patches update the standard library so that all modules
have docstrings beginning with one-line summaries.

A new docstring was added to formatter.  The docstring for os.py
was updated to mention nt, os2, ce in addition to posix, dos, mac.

Guido van Rossum 6c395ba316 Add Tim Peters' shuffle() algorithm. 1999-08-18 13:53:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3357561476 Added randrange to list of exported functions. 1998-07-31 13:40:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d03e1197cb Make gauss() semi-thread-safe. It can still give duplicate results, 
but it can no longer raise an exception when called by several threads
simultaneously.

Guido van Rossum 33d7f1a76c Add Interfaces to replace remaining needs for importing whrandom. 
# XXX TO DO: make the distribution functions below into methods.

Guido van Rossum 5810297052 Correction to vonmisesvariate() by Magnus Kessler: it should take and 
return something between 0 and 2*pi.  Also added a reference to the
literature.

Guido van Rossum 72c2e1b56e Fixed a bug in the gauss() function. The bug was reported by Mike 
Miller, who complained that its kurtosis was bad, and then fixed by
Lambert Meertens (author of the original algorithm) who discovered
that the mathematical analysis leading to his solution was wrong, and
provided a corrected version.  Mike then tested the fix and reported
that the kurtosis was now good.

Guido van Rossum 5bdea89c89 # Typos in the comments giving the names of two recently added distributions. 1997-12-09 19:43:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cf4559a62e Added Pareto and Weibull distributions, courtesy Jeremy Hylton. 1997-12-02 02:47:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2922c6dabb Changes to use default argument values where possible 1994-05-06 14:28:19 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cc32ac9704 Use float constants directly; cosmetic changes; initialize largest 
correctly; allow test(N) to set number of calls in the tests.

Guido van Rossum 95bfcda3e0 Added gauss() (same as normal but twice as fast) and betavariate(); 
print more statistics in test_generator()
