> The `default` method `nextDouble(double origin, double bound)` in > `java.util.random.RandomGenerator` aims at generating a uniformly and > spatially equidistributed random `double` in the left-closed and right-open > range [`origin`, `bound`). It does so by applying the affine transform > `origin + (bound - origin) * r` to a uniformly and spatially equidistributed > random `double` `r` in the range [0, 1). > > Since floating-point arithmetic suffers from small but noticeable rounding > errors, this ends up slightly deforming the distribution of `r` when applying > the affine transform.
