I don't know if this is the right place to report bugs, but I couldn't find anywhere else on the website...
random.randint(min,max) from python core returns an integer between min and max inclusive. The documentation on the website says that numpy.random.randint(min,max [,size]) does this too, but it in fact only ever returns numbers strictly less than the max, and gives an error if min is equal to max Python 2.4.4 (#1, Dec 20 2007, 08:43:49) [GCC 4.1.2 20070214 ( (gdc 0.24, using dmd 1.020)) (Gentoo 4.1.2 p1.0.2)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import random >>> import numpy.random >>> numpy.version.version '1.0.4' >>> random.randint(3,3) 3 >>> numpy.random.randint(3,3) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
