Problems of the day
1.
Write a maple function called r that returns a random number between 0 and 1.
2.
Use this to test Maple's random number generator in the following way: generate a list of 1000 random points (i.e. with random x and ycoordinates), then plot these points. Do they seem randomly distributed?
3.
