.. function:: triangular(low, high, mode)
Return a random floating point number *N* such that ``low <= N < high``
and with the specified *mode* between those bounds.
Return a random floating point number *N* such that ``low <= N < high`` and
with the specified *mode* between those bounds. The *low* and *high* bounds
default to zero and one. The *mode* argument defaults to the midpoint
between the bounds, giving a symmetric distribution.
If *mode* is not specified or is ``None``, it defaults to the midpoint
between the upper and lower bounds, producing a symmetric distribution.
.. versionadded:: 2.6
The default values for *low* and *high* are zero and one.
