> The `default` method `nextDouble(double origin, double bound)` in `java.util.random.RandomGenerator` aims at generating a uniformly and spatially equidistributed random `double` in the left-closed and right-open range [`origin`, `bound`). It does so by applying the affine transform `origin + (bound - origin) * r` to a uniformly and spatially equidistributed random `double` `r` in the range [0, 1).
>
> Since floating-point arithmetic suffers from small but noticeable rounding errors, this ends up slightly deforming the distribution of `r` when applying the affine transform.
