Yes, it should, however you have a ; where you want a :
x,y@-3,-3,;2,2#4
Will sample at x=-3,y=-3, and x=2,y=2
x,y@-3,-3:2,2#4
Will sample at 4 random points in the box defined by -3 <= x <= 2, and
-3 <= y <= 2

> answer="$integral" id="11">
and similarly here there is a ; where you likely want a :
