As can be seen, increasing the sample size reduces the variation between the buckets, showing that the <code>rand()</code> function at least approximates a uniform distribution. (Because Tcl 8.5 supports arbitrary precision integer arithmetic there is no reason in principle why the details for a trillion numbers couldn't be calculated, but it would take quite a while.) |
