Function
Description: Returns a tensor of random numbers drawn from independent normal distributions with the given mean (tensor) and standard deviation (float).
Function Prototype
Each operator is divided into a two-phase API. The "aclnnNormalTensorFloatGetWorkspaceSize" API must be called first to obtain the workspace size required for computation and the executor that encapsulates the operator computation flow. Then, the "aclnnNormalTensorFloat" API is called to perform the computation.

| offset | Input | Offset of the sampling pseudo-random number generator. | - | INT64 | ND | - | - |
| out | Output | Output tensor, which is an aclTensor on the device side. | - | FLOAT16, FLOAT, DOUBLE | ND | 0-8 | - |
| workspaceSize | Output | Returns the workspace size to be requested on the Device side. | - | - | - | - | - |
| executor | Output | Returns the operator executor, which contains the operator computation process. | - | - | - | - | - |
Return value
aclnnStatus: return code. For details, see aclnn Return Codes.
The first-phase API performs input parameter validation and returns an error in the following scenarios:
Return Code Error Code Description ACLNN_ERR_PARAM_NULLPTR 161001 The passed mean or out is a null pointer. ACLNN_ERR_PARAM_INVALID 161002 The data types of the passed mean and out are not within the supported range. The shapes of mean and out cannot be broadcast. The shape dimension of the passed mean or out exceeds 8.
