poisson_simulation, a Fortran90 code which simulates a Poisson process in which events occur uniformly at random, with an average waiting time of Lambda, creating output for graphics by gnuplot().
Note that the Poisson distribution therefore also describes the distribution of distances from one point to the next, assuming the points are distributed uniformly at random along a line, with average density Lambda per unit length.

poisson_simulation is available in a C version and a C++ version and a Fortran90 version and a MATLAB version and an Octave version and a Python version.
f90_simulation, a Fortran90 code which uses simulation to study card games, contests, and other processes which have a random element. Usually, the purpose is to try to predict the average behavior of the system over many trials.
gnuplot_test, Fortran90 codes which write data and command files so that gnuplot() can create plots.
