gen_random_regions — Create random regions like circles, rectangles and ellipses.
gen_random_regions( : Regions : Type, WidthMin, WidthMax, HeightMin, HeightMax, PhiMin, PhiMax, NumRegions, Width, Height : )
The operator gen_random_regions generates regions,
whose parameters are determined at random within the given limits,
and returns them in Regions.
The parameter NumRegions determines how many regions are created.
The position is always random and cannot be determined by parameters, but the center of every region lies in the pixel area [0...Width-1][0...Height-1].
The parameter Type defines the type of the regions.
The meaning of the lower and upper limits depends on Type:
'rectangle1': Minimum/maximum width/height.
'rectangle2': Minimum/maximum half edge lengths,
minimum/maximum rotation angle.
Thereby the larger value is used for the first half edge length.
The parameters correspond to the parameters Length1,
Length2, and Phi of gen_rectangle2.
'circle': WidthMin and WidthMax determine
the minimum and maximum radii.
The parameters correspond to the parameter Radius in
gen_circle.
HeightMin and HeightMax as well as
PhiMin and PhiMax are without further significance.
'ellipse': Minimum/maximum half-radii and minimal/maximum
rotation angle.
Thereby the larger value is used for the first half-radius.
The parameters correspond to the parameters Radius1,
Radius2, and Phi in gen_ellipse.
'ring': Minimum/maximum radii, whereby the larger one determines the radius of the larger circle and the smaller one the radius of the hole.

If the parameter values are correct gen_random_regions returns
the value 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
.
Otherwise an exception is raised.
The clipping according to the current image format is determined by
the operator set_system('clip_region',<'true'/'false'>).
