Does anyone know what the arguments alpha and beta in random.betavariate(alpha, beta) are?

+24

Of course, alpha and beta are angles and if I choose them close together, the range of random values is also low. But what geometric meaning do these angles have and how does the system come to the values? Is there any connection with the unit circle?
