anirudhacharya opened a new issue #11811: Duplication of Operators for sampling from random distributions URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/11811 The operators defined in ``sample_op.cc`` and ``multisample_op.cc`` are seemingly performing the same tasks. Both these files define the following operators respectively ``` sample_op.cc ----------- random_uniform random_normal random_gamma random_exponential random_poisson random_negative_binomial random_generalized_negative_binomial ``` ``` multisample_op.cc ---------- sample_uniform sample_normal sample_gamma sample_exponential sample_poisson sample_negative_binomial sample_generalized_negative_binomial ``` The only difference that I can glean from the documentation is that operators in ``multisample_op.cc`` performs concurrent sampling from multiple distributions, but the behavior of the operators is not different. Is ``sample_op.cc`` being retained for legacy reasons or backward compatibility? Can it be deprecated or EOLed? Correct me if I am wrong here. @szha @zheng-da
