Guido van Rossum	5810297052	Correction to vonmisesvariate() by Magnus Kessler: it should take and ... return something between 0 and 2*pi. Also added a reference to the literature.	1998-04-06 14:12:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum	72c2e1b56e	Fixed a bug in the gauss() function. The bug was reported by Mike ... Miller, who complained that its kurtosis was bad, and then fixed by Lambert Meertens (author of the original algorithm) who discovered that the mathematical analysis leading to his solution was wrong, and provided a corrected version. Mike then tested the fix and reported that the kurtosis was now good.	1998-02-19 21:17:42 +00:00

Guido van Rossum	cc32ac9704	Use float constants directly; cosmetic changes; initialize largest ... correctly; allow test(N) to set number of calls in the tests.	1994-03-15 16:10:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum	95bfcda3e0	Added gauss() (same as normal but twice as fast) and betavariate(); ... print more statistics in test_generator()	1994-03-09 14:21:05 +00:00
