Properties of Selected Random Number Generators

For the uniform distribution, the mean value \mu is then \begin{equation*} \mu=\langle x\rangle=\frac{1}{2} \end{equation*} while the standard deviation is \begin{equation*} \sigma=\sqrt{\langle x^2\rangle-\mu^2}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{12}}=0.2886. \end{equation*}
