Generating Gaussian Random Numbers http://www.taygeta.com/random/gaussian.html This note is about the topic of generating Gaussia pseudo-random numbers given a source of uniform pseudo-random numbers. This topic comes up more frequently than I woul…
Extracted from Section 17.4 Random Numbers, C++ Primer 5th. Ed. The random-number library generates random numbers through a set of cooperating classes: random-number engines and random-number distribution classes. An engine generates a sequence of…
Tamref love random numbers, but he hates recurrent relations, Tamref thinks that mainstream random generators like the linear congruent generator suck. That's why he decided to invent his own random generator. As any reasonable competitive programmer…

Most computer programs do the same thing every time they execute, given the same inputs, so they are said to be deterministic. Deterministic is usually a good thing, since we expect the same calculation to yield the same result. For some applications…
We have the ability to select a single random card from a pile of twelve cards, but we would like to pull a total of nine. Not only that, we would like to match the same transition functions we have been writing all along. Lucky for use there are thr…
If is a discrete random variable taking on values , then we can write . Implementation of this formula to generate discrete random variables is actually quite straightforward and can be summarized as follows. To generate , Generate if , set . we defi…

As an example of subclassing, the random module provides the WichmannHill class that implements an alternative generator in pure Python. The class provides a backward compatible way to reproduce results from earlier versions of Python, which used the…
rand(3) / random(3) / arc4random(3) / et al. Written by Mattt Thompson on August 12th, 2013 What passes for randomness is merely a hidden chain of causality. In a mechanical universe of material interactions expressed through mathematical equations,…
UNDERSTANDING THE GAUSSIAN DISTRIBUTION Randomness is so present in our reality that we are used to take it for granted. Most of the phenomena which surround us have been generated by random processes. Hence, our brain is very good at recognise these…
Original #include <stdlib.h> #include <time.h> srand(time(NULL)); rand(); The versions of rand() and srand() in the Linux C Library use the same random number generator as random(3) and srandom(3), so the lower-order bits should be as random a…

This section describes the random number functions that are part of the ISO C standard. To use these facilities, you should include the header file `stdlib.h' in your program. Macro: int RAND_MAX The value of this macro is an integer constant represe…
Pseudo-Random Numbers Computers normally cannot generate really random numbers, but frequently are used to generate sequences of pseudo-random numbers. These are generated by some algorithm, but appear for all practical purposes to be really random…
Everybody knows about Gaussian distribution, and Gaussian is very popular in Bayesian world and even in our life. This article summaries typical operation of Gaussian, and something about Truncated Guassian distribution. pdf(probability density funct…
