 
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]   [seed=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=float
- Minimum random value
- Default: 0
- max=float
- Maximum random value
- Default: 100
- seed=integer
- Seed for random number generator
- The same seed can be used to obtain same results or random seed can be generated by other means.
 
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.
