  auto // the return type is deduced
  uniform // the name of the function
(string boundaries = "[)", T1, T2, URNG) // the set if compile 
time parameters
// a string that defaults to "[)" denoting a half open interval 
and three named types T1, T2 and URNG
(T1 a, T2 b, ref URNG urng) // the set of runtime parameters a T1 
, a T2 and an URNG taken by reference
  if  (isFloatingPoint!(CommonType!(T1, T2)) && isUniformRNG!RNG); 
// a set of constraints to make sure you don't use the wrong 
types with it.
