I think the patch is occasionally (once every 512 times on average) sending zero to "array quantile" which then outputs the index of the first nonzero number in the table -- in this case a point with probability about 1e-45.
Maybe try random 1e8 (or so) and divide by 1e8 to get a more continuous, less grainy random sample out of the array.

Hello,
Has anyone got any experience with [array quantile]?
I'm getting some strange results and I've done everything I can think of.
I've attached a patch that should clarify the problem. Basically, sometimes, not always, [array quantile] returns some weird numbers that I can't explain.
And a related issue: array random doesn't seem to be doing what it should be doing. It returns very different values, compared with quantile fed with random values between 0 and 1. Again, there is an example of what I mean in the attached patch.
Thanks Peiman
