Ministry of Stochastic Walks

Sunday, March 14th, 2010

Every time someone writes a post about random walks, I feel somewhat motivated to write a little program to generate a few (with adjustable parameters, of course). Anyway, Tamino’s recent discussion motivated me enough to write one.

The code is written in .NET (C#) and licensed under the GPL. The binaries are built for the .NET Framework 2.0, so you’ll need that.
