# tensorflow::ops::TruncatedNormal

`#include <random_ops.h>`

Outputs random values from a truncated normal distribution.

## Summary

The generated values follow a normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1, except that values whose magnitude is more than 2 standard deviations from the mean are dropped and re-picked.

Arguments:

- scope: A [Scope](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.0/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/scope#classtensorflow_1_1_scope) object
- shape: The shape of the output tensor.
- dtype: The type of the output.

<br />

Optional attributes (see `https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.0/api_docs/cc/struct/tensorflow/ops/truncated-normal/attrs#structtensorflow_1_1ops_1_1_truncated_normal_1_1_attrs`):

- seed: If either `seed` or `seed2` are set to be non-zero, the random number generator is seeded by the given seed. Otherwise, it is seeded by a random seed.
- seed2: A second seed to avoid seed collision.

<br />

Returns:

- `https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.0/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/output#classtensorflow_1_1_output`: A tensor of the specified shape filled with random truncated normal values.
