I had a need to have a function that does the same as monadic ?, but with
the difference that the resulting numbers not be integers, but floating
point.

Now, here's my attempt at creating such a function, I'd like to know if
this is the best way to achieve what I need:

∇ r←*hrRand* V ;res
  ⍝⍝ Like monadic ?, but returns floating point numbers
  res ← ⎕SYL[19+⎕IO;1+⎕IO]
  r ← V × res÷⍨ ?res+V×0
∇

Example:

*      hrRand 3 2 ⍴ 10 100 5 (3 4 (2 2⍴5)) 1000*
