numpy.random.RandomState.tomaxint

method

RandomState.tomaxint(size=None)

Random integers between 0 and sys.maxint, inclusive.

Return a sample of uniformly distributed random integers in the interval [0, sys.maxint].

Parameters:
size : int or tuple of ints, optional

Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. Default is None, in which case a single value is returned.

Returns:
out : ndarray

Drawn samples, with shape size.

Examples

>>> RS = np.random.mtrand.RandomState() # need a RandomState object
>>> RS.tomaxint((2,2,2))

        [1601631370, 1479324245]]])
>>> import sys
>>> sys.maxint
