add rand(::IntSet)#21960

I'm not sure we're consistent enough about the max element of an IntSet for this to make sense. We've been treating it as an unbounded set. |

I also don't understand what the problem is with the "max element"... There is a well defined number of elements in an |

Good to go? |

I'm not sure whether srand(0) is needed here, for the doctests?

I would think yes, since otherwise the results would be different every time.

So I saw that it's also possible to use a julia-repl block instead of jldoctest. Could be cleaner...

Downside of that is that they wont be tested. On the other hand, these functions might be fundamental enough that they wont change. julia-repl is fine IMO.

Instead of srand in the doctest you can use a meta block: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/search?l=Markdown&q=meta&type=&utf8=%E2%9C%93

will this actually be uniform?

I believe so, and this is how other uniform random functionality are implemented (rand on a range, on Dict, etc.). Basically pick uniformly one of the possible positions, and if it's not valid try again.

Good catch, looks like unintentional omission.

If this is not a doctest perhaps the MersenneTwister(0) is unnecessary
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Actually, I think I wanted to illustrate different combinations of arguments and show the use of an explicit RNG (and MersenneTwister is the most likely to be used, but doesn't accept for now no-argument), so I would rather keep it as is.
And change "dict" -> "collection" in the exception, as it is also used from rand(::Set).

Rebased. Will merge when CI turns green again. |

The second commit optimizes
rand(::Dict)by using aRangeGeneratorobject, the speed-up seems to be roughly +50%.
