- RandomPointIn[ <Region> ]
Creates a random point inside given polygon or conic.
- RandomPointIn[ <List of Points> ]
Returns a random point inside the polygon with given vertices.
Example:
RandomPointIn[Polygon[A,B,C]]
and RandomPointIn[A,B,C]
both give random point inside triangle ABC.To get a random point that belongs to the list use Random Element instead.
- RandomPointIn[ <xMin>, <xMax>, <yMin>, <yMax> ]
Creates a random point with x-coordinate from interval [xMin,xMax] and y-coordinate from interval [yMin, yMax].
