Its similar as usual, rand for uniformly distributed random number including floatings numbers, whereas randi for integers.

Answer 2

Maybe try this:

array(randi([1 length(array)],1))

[madhan ravi]

Doesn’t it work? You changed the question?

When dealing with 3D arrays if im looking to extract one random point what is the reason behind using randi?

[madhan ravi]

randi produces random integer numbers and rand produces random floating numbers

[madhan ravi]

randi was used here because the index of an array should be an integer.

[madhan ravi]

Was my answer different?
