While investigating the speed of different random number
generators I found that the rand function provided by
octave forge is slower than randmt found in
http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/octave-mt.html
I used the test provided by compare_rngs.m found in
http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/octave-mt/compare_rngs.m.txt
The confusing bit is a note on the top of the above page that states:
"Note that this has been integrated, in a more polished rewrite by Paul
Kienzle, into Octave-Forge."
Thanks in advance
