So far I have used the following formula (see code below): random_x = original_x + radius*cos(angle) random_y = original_y + radius*sin(angle) where radius is a random number between 0 and the radius of the circle and angle is between 0 and 360 degrees The code bellow works fine however some people argue that this method will produce uneven locations? I really do not understand why. Another option will b...
