R = ncx2rnd(V,DELTA) returns a matrix of random numbers chosen from the noncentral chi-square distribution using the corresponding degrees of freedom in V and positive noncentrality parameters in DELTA. V and DELTA can be vectors, matrices, or multidimensional arrays that have the same size, which is also the size of R. A scalar input for V or DELTA is expanded to a constant array with the same dimensions as the other input.

R = ncx2rnd(V,DELTA,v) returns a matrix of random numbers with parameters V and DELTA, where v is a row vector. If v is a 1-by-2 vector, R is a matrix with v(1) rows and v(2) columns. If v is 1-by-n, R is an n-dimensional array.

R = ncx2rnd(V,DELTA,m,n) generates random numbers with parameters V and DELTA, where scalars m and n are the row and column dimensions of R.
