A RNG problem. I'm trying to uniformly sample paths on an SW --> NE grid, of size NS > EW, via random walk. So I generate a random number between 0 and 1 and go east if r < EW/(NS+EW)... but this seems to create a bias towards denser sampling of latter half of path

Curious if this could just be a different-shaped visualization of a normal distribution, kind of like a bean machine? 🤔 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bean_mach

No, this won't be a normal distribution. It's probably 2 crossed poisson distributions, since it's a discrete variable (coin toss)
