How to generate a vector of uniformly distributed numbers around 1 using rand function?

Answer 1

[Stephen23]

>> 2*rand(1,10)
ans =
   1.324304   0.866104   0.570201   1.248882   0.425728   1.720565   0.022849   1.249922   1.828464   1.977158

Of course you could generalize this for a particular offset and range:

off = 0.4;
wid = 1.5
off+wid*rand(...)
