[Documentation](https://matthewflamm.github.io/pyransame/)

Utilities for choosing random samples of points within cells of [PyVista](https://github.com/pyvista/pyvista) meshes.
This package does _not_ choose random points that define the mesh itself, rather random points on 0D vertices, 1D lines, 2D surfaces or
in 3D volumes are sampled.

All linear[^1] cells from [vtk](https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk) are supported, except for `vtkConvexPointSet`.

[^1]: Linear here means not inheriting from `vtkNonLinearCell`.
