In MATLAB, I can use normrnd( mu, sigma, m, n) to
generate a m by n matrix with random number from
the Normal(mu, sigma) distribution. What is the
corresponding function in Octave?
normrnd is available in 2.9.x versions of octave.
Older versions used normal_rnd.
More importantly, what is the best resource for me
to look for answers of this kind of question?
octave-forge (http://octave.sourceforge.net) has
a categorical index of functions. I can't give
a more precise link because the site isn't
responding at the moment.
Thank you very much.
Not a problem.
