r.surf.random(1grass)       GRASS GIS User's Manual      r.surf.random(1grass)

NAME
       r.surf.random   - Produces a raster surface map of uniform random devi-
       ates with defined range.

KEYWORDS
       raster, surface, random

SYNOPSIS
       r.surf.random
       r.surf.random --help
       r.surf.random   [-i]   output=name     [min=integer]      [max=integer]
       [--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=integer
           Minimum random value
           Default: 0

       max=integer
           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.
