Integrate `randtest` for validation of `ak.randint`

Open Ethan-DeBandi99 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

@joshmarshall1 added a runs test for randomness to the python testing to ensure that ak.randint is giving back random results. The results of that testing are extremely promising.

To add an additional check, it would may be beneficial to add randtest as an additional validation of randomness. If we validate against two differing tests I think it is safe to say the results are random.

Hopefully adding randtest will provide a bit more insight to whether randint is actually random, because the probability calculations in #1672 seem to indicate that's not the case
