Simulate a [0,1] Uniform Random Variate

Syntax
# include <cppad/speed/uniform_01.hpp>
uniform_01(seed)
uniform_01(nx)

Purpose
This routine is used to create random values for speed testing purposes.

Inclusion
The template function uniform_01 is defined in the CppAD namespace by including the file cppad/speed/uniform_01.hpp (relative to the CppAD distribution directory). It is only intended for example and testing purposes, so it is not automatically included by cppad.hpp .

seed
The argument seed has prototype
     size_t 
seed
It specifies a seed for the uniform random number generator.

n
The argument n has prototype
     size_t 
n
It specifies the number of elements in the random vector x.

x
The argument x has prototype
     
Vector &x
. The input value of the elements of x does not matter. Upon return, the elements of x are set to values randomly sampled over the interval [0,1].

Vector
If y is a double value, the object x must support the syntax
     
x[i] = y
where i has type size_t with value less than or equal  n-1 . This is the only requirement of the type Vector.

Source Code
The file uniform_01.hpp constraints the source code for this template function.
