DOC: delete incorrect comment about random.random_integers #12232
Conversation
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The random_integers docs do contain a Note explaining usage for evenly space floating-point number sampling. That may be the basis for the comment.
random_integers has also been deprecated for a while now -- since 1.11.0, though I think we mostly have a freeze on modifying the random interfaces because of their heavy use in testing streams.
So, not sure if this the right focus for a doc fix-up at the moment, though I agree it can be confusing if you don't see the note in that deprecated function.

I do not think the following sentence for the documentation in
randintis true: "In particular, this other one is the one to use to generate uniformly distributed discrete non-integers", sincerandom_integersgenerates integers. It seems like a good idea to delete that sentence entirely.
