Re: RPGLESQL - random records from large file

just a note about Db2's RAND() function
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36209123/random-function-in-db2-is-not-evenly-distributed/36209627#36209627

It seems slightly odd that you'd link to that answer, but the
important thing is getting to the page with that question, so good
enough.

I really need to see if that's still the case :)

See if what is still the case? That RAND() returns [0, 1] and not [0,
1)? Yes, that's still the case.
