CloudRandom Node
Random point set: Generates a specified number of uniformly distributed random points, each with a value in [0, 1], using one of several methods: fully random (pure randomness, may cause clustering), Halton sequence (quasi-random, evenly distributed), Hammersley sequence (optimized, well-spaced for fixed point counts), or Latin hypercube sampling (stratified, uniform coverage).

| cloud | Cloud | Set of points (x, y) and elevations z. |
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| method | Enumeration | Generation method. |
| npoints | Integer | Number of points. |
| remap | Value range | Remap the point values to a specified range, defaulting to [0, 1]. |
| Seed | Random seed number | Random seed number. The random seed is an offset to the randomized process. A different seed will produce a new result. |
