So, is it correct to assume that for language constructs that create built-in types like Range, Array, Hash etc that user-defined initialize methods are never called?

This is an idea mainly to reduce typing a method (like n.zero?), and as such a a poor api. I read that api as only sometimes returning a random number. Also, it fails to consider the random number's distribution (not all generators have to return uniform random numbers). > > A lot of random number generators can return numbers with a gaussian > distribution.

Not sure it would be of any use. If anything you want a method to fill a string with random characters, not just bytes (a string is which may or may not be multibyte). -- Gonzalo Garramu ggarra@advancedsl.com.ar AMD4400 - ASUS48N-E GeForce7300GT Kubuntu Edgy
