...ated numbers are not desired. We tried several RNGs in R and found Wichmann-Hill did not produce duplications. The duplication problem is the interesting birthday problem. If there are M possible numbers, randomly draw N numbers from them, the average number of dupilcations D = N(N-1)/2/M. For Knuth-TAOCP and Knuth-TAOCP-2002, M=2^30, since this modulus is used. D = 46566.12 for N=10M samples. For Marsaglia-Multicarry, Super-Duper and Mersene-Twister, M=2^32. D = 11641.53 for N = 10M samples. My testing results (see below) agree with above analysis. But for Wichmann-Hill, it wasn't. W...

Hi all, I have happened to work on MS .NET for sometime now, and I found that this language offers RNG what is called as Donald E. Knuth's subtractive random number generator algorithm (found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.random.aspx#Y12). ? Here I was wondering whether R also have same RNG in it's inventory, so looked at ?set.seed. There I found 2 related RNGs namely 'Knuth-TAOCP-2002', 'K...

...of k, and if your keys happen to all be a multiple of 8, you end up not using about 90% of the slot as a direct access in an open addressing hash table. By the way, does anyone know the rationale behind using 37? In order to improve this, it could be nice to use a better hash function such as the Knuth hash which is defined as: std::size_t hash_value(std::size_t val, int p) { assert(p >= 0 && p <= 64); const std::size_t knuth = 11133510565745311; return (val * knuth) >> (64 - p); } The big advantage of this function is that is shuffles all the bits and does not suf...

...is my questions. 1. Can you give me one test for randomness (a name and descriptive paragraph is sufficient). 2. I have learned a uniform random number generator [e.g. not the algorithms: i)Wichmann-Hill, ii) Marsaglia-Multicarry, iii) Super-Duper (Marsaglia), iv) Mersenne-Twister, v) TAOCP-1997 (Knuth), or vi) TAOCP-2002 (Knuth)] . Is there any other method besides that? 3. How to generate 100 random standard normal deviates using the Box-Muller method for standard normal random deviates and sort the sequence, smallest to largest? Your kind help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! best...

I'm working on the next iteration of coxme. (Rather slowly during the summer). This is the most subtle code I've done in S, both mathematically and technically, and seems a perfect vehicle for the "literate programming" paradym of Knuth. The Sweave project is pointed at S output however, not source code. I would appreciate any pointers to an noweb type client that was R-aware. Other suggestions are welcome as well. At the end of the day I'd like to have a good user guide, technical reference, and solid enough code do...
