The distributions will vary according to the base ring over which you are considering matrices.
To access, the documentation, open a Sage session and run
sage: random_matrix?
then hit the ENTER or RETURN key. This will display the documentation (in text mode).
Alternatively, run
sage: browse_sage_doc(random_matrix)
to display the documentation rendered in HTML.
You may also want to access the documentation for the random_element
method of the base ring.
For example, type one of
sage: R = ZZ
sage: R = QQ
sage: R = GF(5)
sage: R = Zmod(12)
followed by one of
sage: R.random_element?
sage: browse_sage_doc(R.random_element)
