drunkenSim: Drunken-Turtle Simulation

In homerhanumat/bcscr: Beginning Computer Science with R

Drunken-Turtle Simulation

Description

A drunken turtle starts at the origin and takes unit steps, turning through a randdom angle after each step. We are interested in the distribution of the number of close-returns to the origin, for a fixed number of steps and a fixed measure of closeness.

Usage

drunkenSim(steps = 1000, reps = 10000, close = 0.5,
                       seed = NULL, table = FALSE)

Arguments

steps	the number of steps the turtle will take
reps	number of simulations to perform
close	the distance from the origin that counts as "close"
seed	The user may provide a seed-value for random-number generation.
table	Does the user want a table of the results?

Value

side effects
