UNIFORM
Uniform Quasirandom Datasets
UNIFORM
is a dataset directory which
contains points generated as part of an M-dimensional uniform random process.
The datasets are distinguished by the values of the following
parameters:
-
M, the spatial dimension;
-
N, the number of points to generate;
-
SEED, is the initial value of the seed;
The values of M and N are specified in the dataset file names.

Related Data and Programs:
PLOT_POINTS,
a FORTRAN90 program which
can plot two dimensional
datasets, making Encapsulated PostScript images.
SEQUENCE_STREAK_DISPLAY,
a MATLAB program which
can make a streak plot
of a (one-dimensional) sequence.
TABLE,
a file format which
is used to store the datasets.
TABLE_TOP,
a FORTRAN90 program which
can be used to analyze
datasets of any dimension, by creating images of pairwise
coordinates.
UNIFORM,
a C++ library which
computes elements of a uniform pseudorandom sequence.
UNIFORM_DATASET,
a C++ program which
generates a dataset of uniform pseudorandom values and writes them to a file.
Example dataset:
A typical (but small) dataset of 10 points in 2 dimensions looks like this:
