28.5.9.2.2 Class template uniform_real_distribution [rand.dist.uni.real]

A uniform_real_distribution random number distribution produces random numbers x, , distributed according to the constant probability density function in Formula 28.3.
[Note 1: 
This implies that p(x|a,b) is undefined when a == b.

Preconditions: a  ≤ b and .
Remarks: a and b correspond to the respective parameters of the distribution.
result_type a() const;
Returns: The value of the a parameter with which the object was constructed.
result_type b() const;
Returns: The value of the b parameter with which the object was constructed.
