Since you are using Python, you can just ask it:

     >>> import numpy as np
     >>> help(np.random.rand)
     Help on built-in function rand:

     rand(...)
         Return an array of the given dimensions which is initialized to
         random numbers from a uniform distribution in the range [0,1).

         rand(d0, d1, ..., dn) -> random values

         Note:  This is a convenience function. If you want an
                     interface that takes a tuple as the first argument
                     use numpy.random.random_sample(shape_tuple).
     >>> np.random.rand(2,3)
     array([[ 0.309125  ,  0.68037706,  0.59229101],
            [ 0.20640643,  0.33197814,  0.20436687]])
