Replacing the Random Number Generator in Stand Alone Library
Hi R-Developers,
I had a question about the random number generator used in the R StandAlone
Math Library. The stand-alone library depends on the unif_rand() function
for most simulated values, and this function is provided in the sunif.c file
in the relevant directory. At present, this program implements the
"Marsaglia-Multicarry" algorithm, which is described throughout the R

New entropy source proposal.
Hi.
I've been playing a bit with "use sound card as an entropy source" idea.
This simple program does what I wanted:
http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/misc/sndrand.tbz
The program is very simple, it should be run with two arguments:
% sndtest /dev/dspW 1048576 > rand.data
This command will generate 1MB of random data.
With my sound card:
pcm0: <Intel ICH3 (82801CA)>

Spicy stuff on web development
Hi all,
The link contains a stingy article on AJAX and other somewhat browser
dependant stuff.

Being a webdev myself and also a diehard perfectionist, I could relate to some

C programmers, please help. need dovecot patch
Hi all.
Can any C programmers out there tell me how to fix Dovecot to default to
Maildir format when autodecting can't find anything? I don't know C, but
it seems like it would be a simple thing.
Right now, I use the autodetect mailbox feature because we want users to
choose to optionally be able to use Mbox format (we have some diehard unix
users with non-maildir clients). I have

Hi,
Try: DRI_PRIME=1 LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nouveau vainfo --display drm --device

Also try with and without the --device option, the important one is

Winamp plugin installation
Okay, this is a nitpick but I gotta do it. First the background: I'm
trying to convince a diehard mp3 coworker of mine to use ogg for his
personal project along side of mp3 and having a tough time. His gripe is
that the default players all support mp3 (Winamp and wma) but not ogg and
that his listeners won't want to go out and install it. We have now set up
a huge shared drive on the

Random Number Testing
Hi,
Is there a package that contains testing algorithms (e.g. runs test,
serial test, autocorrelation test...) for random number generators ?
Cheers,

"Secure" tftpd source for Linux?
I''ve been poking around my system, and realized that having a tftp server
would be handy. (I''m working with cisco routers, which have the capability to
up and download configuration images via tftp.)
However, I''m not content with the usual tftpd that comes with Linux. The
whole "specify each directory you want" scheme is cock-eyed to me. I''d

Random numbers
Hi All.
I have R code whose functionality is being replicated within a C+
program. The outputs are to be compared to validate the conversion
somewhat - however (as is always the case) I have stuffed my code with
random number calls.
Random uniform numbers in C+ are being produced using the (Boost)
mersenne-twister generators (mt11213b & mt19937) - which is the default
type of generator

testing randomness of random number generators with student t-test?
Hi, subject more or less says it all.
I freely admit to not having bothered to find some of the online papers
about method of testing the quality of random number generators -- but
in an idle moment I wondered what to expect from something like the
following:
randa<-runif(1000)
randb<-runif(1000)
t.test(randa,randb)$p.value
var.test(randa,randb)$p.value

Testing for randomness
Dear all,
Is there a test in R for the randomness of a sequence of observations (e.g.
to test the random number generator)? Specifically I am looking for autocorrelations
which are not necessarily linear in nature, which the acf function does
not seem to be flexible enough to detect as it tests for linear autocorrelation.
Thanks in advance,
Paul.
