Also some new functions for randomness in CVS. These can replace flxrnd
and use the plt random number generator
(rndf) number between 0 and 1
(crndf) number between -1 and 1
(grndf) gaussian random number (average 0)
Also a load of vector random calls. It helps to think of these in terms
of the shape they would make if you plot them as particle clouds - there
are examples in the docs to do this:
(rndvec) all elements 0->1 (solid unit cube)
(crndvec) all elements -1->1 (solid cube centred on origin)
(srndvec) vectors with length less than 1 (solid sphere with radius 1)
(hsrndvec) vectors of length 1 (hollow sphere with radius 1)
(grndvec) gaussian - normal distribution around 0,0,0
cheers,
dave
