[TRNSYS-users] random numbers

There are two random number generator Types in the TESS Libraries: 
Type577 generates a semi-random number drawn from a uniform distribution 
between a user-specified minimum and maximum value. The number is 
semi-random because the user supplies a seed number so that two 
simulations run sequentially will still generate the same result. 
Type578 generates a semi-random number drawn from a normal distribution 
based on a user-specified mean value and standard deviation. If Type578 
is not appropriate for your application, perhaps Type577 would work.
Kind regards,
David

I don't care if the numbers are not standard division. Is there somebody of you who worked with random numbers in trnsys (e.g. vor the ACH). Thank you!
