Returns the value of U.

Declaration

Certain( U )

Description

Certain is considered to be a distribution function -- the distribution in which one outcome is certain. Therefore, its return value is different depending on whether it is evaluated in Mid-mode or Sample-mode. In Mid-mode, U is returned unchanged. In Sample-mode, the Run-index is added to U if not already there, so that the result is a sample (where every sample point is the same value).

(new to 4.0): The introduction of Run in sample-mode is new to 4.0.
