Generators
Random data is produced by a set of functions called generators. Any function of the form (seed) -> any qualifies as a generator. Given a seed value, it returns a corresponding pseudo-random value.
- Type
- Data type of the generated value. Generated values are implicitly cast to this type.
- Name
- Name of the generated value.
Generated values are available to dependent generators asgenerated.<name>
Generated values are available in step results asresults.generated[<name>]. - Generator
- Generator function of the form
(seed) -> anythat generates a pseudo-random value.
Use one of the generator functions available through the widget morph menu or supply a custom function.
