There's a mostly relevant issue: https://github.com/numpy/n
Hi Kevin,
I'm all for wanting the docs to guide folks to current best practice, but
in its current form the documentation for this module is quite opaque.
Maybe a table like the old version that maps old functionality to exemplar
versions using Generator instances would be a useful compromise?

I think the issue in random specifically is that a raw list of
available functions does not provide suitable guidance for someone looking
for random variate generating function. This is because the module-level
API is mostly dominated by methods of the singleton RandomState instance.
Best practice
Hi Melissa,
I think that's the right approach. Looking through the current docs, I
think the page on the FFT module is exemplary in this regard:
https://numpy.org/doc/stable/reference/routines.fft.html
It lists all the available functions (with links to details), and then has
a section on "Back
I second that reinstating such a list would be extremely useful. My issue
has been with the polynomial package, but the end result is the same.

Hi Paul,
Do you think having a page with the flat list of routines back, in addition
to the explanations, would solve this?

Hi All,
The documentation of Numpy's submodules used to have a fairly standard
structure as shown here in the 1.16 documentation:
https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.16.1/reference/routines.random.html
Now the same page in the API documentation looks like this:
https://numpy.org/doc/stable/
