Sebastiao Pereira generates random numbers:
Generating random numbers from a normal distribution is essential for accuracy and realistic modeling, simulation, inference, and algorithm design. This is useful for scientific, engineering, statistical, and AI domains. Let’s see how we can create Box Muller transform functionality in SQL Server without the use of external tools.
I’ve used this technique before in SQL Server and it works really well. Performance is fine and the results approximate a normal distribution like you’d want.
