Algorithms

• [ ] randomGaussian()

  assigning x to randomGaussian(320, 60) is the same as the following:

  let x = 60 * randomGaussian() + 320;
  

• [ ] noise()

  Without seed settings, every time would be the same.

Ideas

• [ ] Random walkers return to previously visited positions many times, a phenomenon known as oversampling.
  • [ ] Lévy flight
    • [ ] "Martingale”
    • [ ] accept-reject algorithm

Goal: random walking with some features.

Question:

Is it possible to make a random walker goes like:

That is:

• [ ] Random
• [ ] Smooth

And EITHER:

• [ ] Following some geometric shape
• [ ] Returning to its origin
