## usage: wiener_rnd (t [, d [,n]])
##
## Returns a simulated realization of the d-dimensional Wiener Process
## on the interval [0,t]. If d is omitted, d=1 is used. The first
## column of the return matrix contains time, the remaining columns
## contain the Wiener process.
##
## The optional parameter n gives the number of summands used for
## simulating the process over an interval of length 1. If n is
## omitted, n=1000 is used.
