RANDOM.I
Random numbers with various distributions.
$Id$

/* Copyright (c) 1996. The Regents of the University of California.

/* Contents:
random_x - avoids the 2.e9 bins of the random function at a
cost of calling random twice, can be used as a
drop-in replacement for random
random_u - convenience routine to give uniform deviate on an
interval other than (0,1)
random_n - return gaussian deviate
random_ipq - arbitrary piecewise linear deviate, with optional
power law or exponential tails
random_rej - generic implementation of rejection method, can be
used either in conjunction with a piecewise linear
bounding function, or an arbitrary bounding function
(in the latter case, the inverse of the integral of
the bounding function must be supplied as well)
In all cases, these routines accept a dimlist or arguments to
determine the dimensions of the returned random deviates.
Furthermore, in all cases you will get back the same sequence
of deviates no matter what the dimensionality of the calls --
for example, if at some point the call to random_n(5) returns
[.3,-.1,-.8,1.1,-.9], then if instead random_n(3) followed by
random_n(2) had been called, the return values would have been
[.3,-.1,-.8] and [1.1,-.9].

func build_dimlist(&dimlist, arg)

func your_function(arg1, arg2, etc, dimlist, ..)

...
}
After this, DIMLIST will be an array of the form
[#dims, dim1, dim2, ...], compounded from the multiple arguments
in the same way as the array function. If no DIMLIST arguments
given, DIMLIST will be [] instead of [0], which will act the
same in most situations. If that possibility is unacceptible,
you may add
if (is_void(dimlist)) dimlist= [0];
after the while loop.

same as random(DIMLIST), except that random_x calls random
twice at each point, to avoid the defect that random only
can produce about 2.e9 numbers on the interval (0.,1.) (see
random for an explanation of these bins).
You may set random=random_x to get these "better" random
numbers in every call to random.
Unlike random, there is a chance in 1.e15 or so that random_x
may return exactly 1.0 or 0.0 (the latter may not be possible
with IEEE standard arithmetic, while the former apparently is).
Since cosmic rays are far more likely, you may as well not
worry about this. Also, because of rounding errors, some bit
patterns may still be more likely than others, but the 0.5e-9
wide bins of random will be absent.

according to the TARGET_DIST function:
func target_dist(x)
returning u(x)>=0 of same number and dimensionality as x, normalized
so that the integral of target_dist(x) from -infinity to +infinity
is 1.0. The BOUNDING_DIST function must have the same calling
sequence as TARGET_DIST:
func bounding_dist(x)
returning b(x)>=u(x) everywhere. Since u(x) is normalized, the
integral of b(x) must be >=1.0. Finally, BOUNDING_RAND is a
function which converts an array of uniformly distributed random
numbers on (0,1) -- as returned by random -- into an array
distributed according to BOUNDING_DIST:
func bounding_rand(uniform_x_01)
Mathematically, BOUNDING_RAND is the inverse of the integral of
BOUNDING_DIST from -infinity to x, with its input scaled to (0,1).
If BOUNDING_DIST is not a function, then it must be an IPQ_MODEL
returned by the ipq_setup function. In this case BOUNDING_RAND is
omitted -- ipq_compute will be used automatically.

/* DOCUMENT model= ipq_setup(x, u)
or model= ipq_setup(x, u, power=[pleft,prght])
or model= ipq_setup(x, u, power=[pleft,prght], slope=[sleft,srght])
compute a model for the ipq_compute function, which computes the
inverse of a piecewise quadratic function. This function occurs
when computing random numbers distributed according to a piecewise
linear function. The piecewise linear function is u(x), determined
by the discrete points X and U input to ipq_setup. None of the
values of U may be negative, and X must be strictly increasing,
X(i)<X(i+1).
If U(1) or U(0) is not zero, you may want to model the "tail" of
the distribution, which is not well modeled by a piecewise linear
function. You can specify a power law tail using the power=
keyword; the left tail has initial slope (U(2)-U(1))/(X(2)-X(1)),
and decays to the left as 1/X^PLEFT. Similarly for the right tail.
If U(1)==0, PLEFT is ignored, as is PRGHT when U(0)==0. Use the
slope= keyword to specify an alternative value for the slope.
Note that PLEFT and PRGHT must each be greater than 1.0, and that
SLEFT>0 while SRGHT<0. If either power is greater than or equal to
100, an exponential tail will be used. As a convenience, you may
also specify PLEFT or PRGHT of 0 to get an exponential tail.
Note: ipq_function(model, xp) returns the function values u(xp) at
the points xp, including the tails (if any). ipq_compute(model, yp)
returns the xp for which (integral from -infinity to xp) of u(x)
equals yp; i.e.- the inverse of the piecewise quadratic.
