__init__(*args)
generate()

Generate points according to the type of the experiment.

Returns
sampleSample

Points (\Xi_i)_{i \in I} which constitute the design of experiments with card I = size. The sampling method is defined by the nature of the weighted experiment.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> myExperiment = ot.MonteCarloExperiment(ot.Normal(2), 5)
>>> sample = myExperiment.generate()
>>> print(sample)
    [ X0        X1        ]
0 : [  0.608202 -1.26617  ]
1 : [ -0.438266  1.20548  ]
2 : [ -2.18139   0.350042 ]
3 : [ -0.355007  1.43725  ]
4 : [  0.810668  0.793156 ]
generateWithWeights(weights)

Generate points and their associated weight according to the type of the experiment.

Returns
sampleSample

The points which constitute the design of experiments. The sampling method is defined by the nature of the experiment.

weightsPoint of size cardI

Weights (\omega_i)_{i \in I} associated with the points. By default, all the weights are equal to 1/cardI.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> ot.RandomGenerator.SetSeed(0)
>>> myExperiment = ot.MonteCarloExperiment(ot.Normal(2), 5)
>>> sample, weights = myExperiment.generateWithWeights()
>>> print(sample)
    [ X0        X1        ]
0 : [  0.608202 -1.26617  ]
1 : [ -0.438266  1.20548  ]
2 : [ -2.18139   0.350042 ]
3 : [ -0.355007  1.43725  ]
4 : [  0.810668  0.793156 ]
>>> print(weights)
[0.2,0.2,0.2,0.2,0.2]
