Syntax

x = richtmeyer(s, n)

Description

Generates the first n elements of the Richtmeyer sequence based on the seed number s. Richtmeyer sequences are quasi-random number sequences.

Examples

Inputs

Name	Description
s	Specifies a seed number. To guarantee appropriate random behavior of the sequence LabVIEW generates, s must be an irrational number.
n	Specifies the number of elements LabVIEW generates.

Outputs

Name	Description
x	Returns a sequence of n real numbers in the interval [0, 1].

Examples

N = 10000;
plot(richtmeyer(sqrt(3), N), richtmeyer(sqrt(5), N), 'o')
