// halton.h - classes, etc for generating numbers using the Halton pseudo-random sequence. See
|
||
|
// http://halton-sequences.wikiverse.org/.
|
||
|
//
|
||
|
// what this function is useful for is any sort of sampling/integration problem where
|
||
|
// you want to solve it by random sampling. Each call the NextValue() generates
|
||
|
// a random number between 0 and 1, in an unclumped manner, so that the space can be more
|
||
|
// or less evenly sampled with a minimum number of samples.
|
||
|
//
|
||
|
// It is NOT useful for generating random numbers dynamically, since the outputs aren't
|
||
|
// particularly random.
|
||
|
//
|
||
|
// To generate multidimensional sample values (points in a plane, etc), use two
|
||
|
// HaltonSequenceGenerator_t's, with different (primes) bases.
