Return random integers in the range 1:imax.
Additional arguments determine the shape of the return matrix. When no
arguments are specified a single random integer is returned. If one
argument n is specified then a square matrix (n x n)
is returned. Two or more arguments will return a multi-dimensional matrix
(m x n x …).
The integer range may optionally be described by a two element matrix with a
lower and upper bound in which case the returned integers will be on the
interval [imin, imax].
The optional argument class will return a matrix of the requested
type. The default is "double".
The following example returns 150 integers in the range 1–10.
Implementation Note: randi relies internally on rand which
uses class "double" to represent numbers. This limits the maximum
integer (imax) and range (imax - imin) to the value
returned by the flintmax function. For IEEE floating point numbers
this value is 2^{53} - 1.
