The nextGaussian() method of Random class returns the next pseudorandom, Gaussian(normally) distributed double value with mean 0.0 and standard deviation 1.0 from the random number generator’s sequence.
Syntax:
public double nextGaussian()
Parameters: The function does not accepts any parameter.
Return Value: This method returns the next pseudorandom Gaussian distributed double number with mean 0.0 and standard deviation 1.0.
Exception: The function does not throws any exception.
Program below demonstrates the above mentioned function:
Program 1:
import java.util.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Random r = new Random();
System.out.println( "Next Gaussian value is = "
+ r.nextGaussian());
}
}
|
Output:
Next Gaussian value is = 0.3350871100964153
Program 2:
import java.util.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Random r = new Random();
System.out.println( "Next Gaussian value is = "
+ r.nextGaussian());
}
}
|
Output:
Next Gaussian value is = 1.5685150659018154
