+The four core distributions (:meth:`~.Generator.random`,
+:meth:`~.Generator.standard_normal`, :meth:`~.Generator.standard_exponential`,
+and :meth:`~.Generator.standard_gamma`) all allow existing arrays to be filled
+using the ``out`` keyword argument. Existing arrays need to be contiguous and
+well-behaved (writable and aligned). Under normal circumstances, arrays
created using the common constructors such as :meth:`numpy.empty` will satisfy
these requirements.
