Random numbers can be generated using numpy through the following methods:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Return a random number between 0 and 1 using NumPy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    import<\/span> numpy as<\/span> np\r\n\r\nrandom_array = np.random.rand(2<\/span>, 3<\/span>)\r\nprint<\/span>(random_array)\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
    Output:<\/p>\n
    [[0.12345678 0.45678901 0.98765432]\r\n [0.23456789 0.56789012 0.87654321]]\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
      \n
    1. Generate random numbers from a standard normal distribution using numpy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      import<\/span> numpy as<\/span> np\r\n\r\nrandom_array = np.random.randn(2<\/span>, 3<\/span>)\r\nprint<\/span>(random_array)\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n

        \n
      1. Generate a random integer using numpy.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        import<\/span> numpy as<\/span> np\r\n\r\nrandom_array = np.random.randint(0<\/span>, 10<\/span>, size=(2<\/span>, 3<\/span>))\r\nprint<\/span>(random_array)\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
