I had a need to have a function that does the same as monadic ?, but with
the difference that the resulting numbers not be integers, but floating
point.
Now, here's my attempt at creating such a function, I'd like to know if
this is the best way to achieve what I need:
∇ r←*hrRand* V ;res
⍝⍝ Li
I think this is the best you can get, about 62 bits of randomness.
(64⍴2) ⊤⎕syl[20;2] ⍝ the largest 64 bits integer supported by gnu-apl
0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1
1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
so, it's a bit less than
Thanks. I'll stick with this for now then.
How would (res+V×0) wrap around, by the way?

Bad first reading, (res+V×0) does nothing, it add 0 to "res". How is it usefull
?

The purpose of it is to preserve the structure of the argument, while
setting all values to MAXINT.
Is there a better way to achieve this?

I don't know, your "(res+V×0)" is probably the way to go for that purpose, I'm
not an expert but I understand what you mean.
I have an alias defined as:
proto←{↑0⍴⊂ ⍵}
that give me the prototype of the argument (use with: 24 QuadCR proto w). It
will probably not help you but good to know.
