ResourceFunction["RandomVector"][type,range,n]

returns an n-dimensional vector with entries that are random values of type type and lie in range range.

Details

The type can be Integer, Rational, Real, Complex, "GaussianInteger" or "GaussianRational".

For complex types, the range is given as a pair of complex values that are taken as diagonally opposite endpoints of a rectangle.
