Thanks for the test. I give a +1 fir this (with the already mentioned
"but"'s like documentation etc.). Inclusion would also make it easier
for others to test it a bit.

I gave it a try. The version from yesterday was really slow (about 3
times slower than other generato

This is probably not the place to start a discussion on the difference
between patent and copyright :-}
Copyright can apply to source code; neither patent nor copyright should

I have the same question for possibly replacing the default RNG in class
"UnitSphereRandomVectorGenerator".
Very good point. We made all

Hi,
I think it sounds interesting.
A few comments:
1) Does it support paralleled generation?
2) In regards to the user, which should be the default for e.g.
sampling from probability distributions?
3) How is the performance compared to the existing algorithms in Commons Math?
Cheers, Mikkel.
