next higher integer, <code>mpf_floor</code> to the next lower, and <code>mpf_trunc</code>
to the integer towards zero.

<dd><a name="index-Random-number-functions-1"></a>
<a name="index-Float-random-number-functions"></a>
<p>Generate a uniformly distributed random float in <var>rop</var>, such that <em>0
&lt;= <var>rop</var> &lt; 1</em>, with <var>nbits</var> significant bits in the mantissa or
less if the precision of <var>rop</var> is smaller.
</p>
<p>The variable <var>state</var> must be initialized by calling one of the
<code>gmp_randinit</code> functions (<a href="Random-State-Initialization.html#Random-State-Initialization">Random State Initialization</a>) before
invoking this function.

<dt><a name="index-mpf_005frandom2"></a>Function: <em>void</em> <strong>mpf_random2</strong> <em>(mpf_t <var>rop</var>, mp_size_t <var>max_size</var>, mp_exp_t <var>exp</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>Generate a random float of at most <var>max_size</var> limbs, with long strings of
zeros and ones in the binary representation. The exponent of the number is in
the interval -<var>exp</var> to <var>exp</var> (in limbs). This function is
useful for testing functions and algorithms, since these kind of random
numbers have proven to be more likely to trigger corner-case bugs. Negative
random numbers are generated when <var>max_size</var> is negative.
