Hello, Is there an easy way for me to set the value of a one variable as a restriction when generating a random number? Specifically, what I want to do is:
1. "p" is generated as a random number between 0 and 1
2. Generate another variable "q", but there is a restriction that p+q < 1. Since I determined the value of p in the previous step, I'd like q to be something like rand(1-p), but obviously the rand function requires that size inputs must be integers.
Is there a clever way to do this? What I've thought of is making an if statement to check that p + q < 1 before proceeding to the next steps of the code (and repeat the rand function if q happens to be too large), but I thought there may be a simpler solution.
Thanks!
SY

As per my knowledge, there is no any predefined function which do your work. You can write the script as well or you can write function for your convenience.
clc
clear
A=rand(5)
[x y]=find(A>0.5);
while length(x)>0
for i=1:length(x)
A(x(i),y(i))=rand(1);
end
[x y]=find(A>0.5);
end
A
