# SampleGenerator.SamplingStrategy.random(retries:)

A strategy that randomly picks a subset of samples each time a model repeats inference.

```
case random(retries: Int = 5)
```

## Parameters

`retries`

The maximum number of retries when the model repeats an inference.

## Discussion

When the model repeats an inference, this strategy retries up to `retries` times,
selecting a random subset to steer the model toward a new inference.
