Can you elaborate please? I just looked at the documentation and it seems pretty clearly explained (though I have not run
main()
To see all the help it may give as suggested. However to note that "random" is not a SasView function at all but a parameter in the compare framework used for testing models. I think it just calls the built in random number generator to create values for the model parameters within what should be generically "reasonable" bounds for a given parameter type as explained in the documentation:
Options will need to be passed as separate strings. For example to run your model
with a random set of parameters:
main("-random", "-pars", "~/.sasview/plugin_models/model.py")
For the random models,
sld will be in the range (-0.5,10.5),
angles (theta, phi, psi) will be in the range (-180,180),
angular dispersion will be in the range (0,45),
polydispersity will be in the range (0,1)
other values will be in the range (0, 2v), where v is the value of the parameter in demo.
A better indication of what is confusing and how to make it more clear to a first time model developer would be helpful and very welcome.
