Felix Schüler commented on MAHOUT-1599:
---------------------------------------

That was just what I was looking for :)
Wanted to wrap it in a rand(m, n) command like in matlab and similar to eye(m). 
I didn't find a way to treat vectors and matrices as scala collections besides 
the assign method wich takes a function class. 

> Add rand() operator to math-scala

> I was looking at the scala-math operators and missed a rand(m, n) operator 
> that generates a m x n matrix filled with random numbers.
> I wanted random numbers from a uniform distribution over a specific interval 
> so I implemented a simple uniform random number generator.
> the rand(m, n, r) function takes any AbstractSamplerFunction and fills the 
> matrix entries with the numbers generated by its sample() method.
