TSGAUSSIAN(1) TSGAUSSIAN(1)
NAME
tsgaussian - gaussian noise generator-generates a time series
SYNOPSIS
tsgaussian [-t] [-v] number
DESCRIPTION
Tsgaussian is for generating a Gaussian noise time series. The idea is
to produce a Gaussian power spectrum distribution.
Note: these programs use the following functions from other references:
ran1, which returns a uniform random deviate between
0.0 and 1.0. See "Numerical Recipes in C: The Art of
Scientific Computing," William H. Press, Brian
P. Flannery, Saul A. Teukolsky, William T. Vetterling,
Cambridge University Press, New York, 1988, ISBN
0-521-35465-X, page 210, referencing Knuth.
gasdev, which returns a normally distributed deviate
with zero mean and unit variance, using ran1 () as the
source of uniform deviates. See "Numerical Recipes in
C: The Art of Scientific Computing," William H. Press,

T. Vetterling, Cambridge University Press, New York,
1988, ISBN 0-521-35465-X, page 217.
gammln, which returns the log of the results of the
gamma function. See "Numerical Recipes in C: The Art
of Scientific Computing," William H. Press, Brian
P. Flannery, Saul A. Teukolsky, William T. Vetterling,
Cambridge University Press, New York, 1988, ISBN
0-521-35465-X, page 168.
OPTIONS
-t Sample's time will be included in the output time series.
-v Print the version and copyright banner of the program.
number Number of data points in the output time series.
WARNINGS
There is little or no provision for handling numerical exceptions.
