@lowqualityfacts They're all penguins, of course, but still...

dpiponi, to random
@dpiponi@mathstodon.xyz avatar

Given a random number generator that generates points uniformly in the unit interval [0,1] can you generate uniformly distributed points in the unit circle using only algebraic functions? In a finite number of steps - so no rejection sampling, loops, recursion. No "almost always" finite either.

Just wondering about sitiations where it seems you can't avoid trig functions.

@BoydStephenSmithJr @dpiponi This has the same number of points on each circle around the origin, meaning the density goes to ∞ at zero.- definitely not uniform.

@dpiponi @BoydStephenSmithJr Yeah - I am definitely trouble coming up with the right words when it comes to ... "density"(?) of things. One of these millenia I'll write up where I think there's some missing nomenclature (and or ask whether maybe it exists and I'm just unaware of it)...
