In this chapter we look further at random number generation and some of the ways you will use random numbers in physics simulations and analysis.

The sections include:

  • Random Numbers and Simulations - discusses why the standard uniform or Gaussian random number generators are not suitable to the types of distributions often needed in scientific simulations.

  • Generating Distributions - uses the rejection technique to generate a custom probability distribution as might be needed in an experiment simulation.

  • Histogram Distribution - use a histogram distribution to generate random numbers that follows that distribution.

  • Monte Carlo Integration - this technique applies random sampling to estimate an integral.
