I'm curious what algorithm calls for random numbers on a closed interval.
I'm implementing a Particle Swarm Optimizer. Depending on what paper you read you'll see mention of required random values "between 0 and 1" which is somewhat ambiguous. I came across one paper that specified the range [0,1], so inclusive 1, which was the reason for my question. (I'm still looking for other papers to see if I can get more information exactly on the range) I think in the end it probably doesn't matter if it's [0, 1) or [0, 1] as the max values for each will probably be very close.
