- initialization routine for generating a random
pattern
SYNOPSIS
int random_multi_init
(cov, n)
ARGUMENTS
double
**cov
The covariance matrix, a matrix of size [1..n][1..n].
int
n
The dimension of the covariance matrix.
RETURNS
The function returns TRUE if an error was detected, and FALSE otherwise.
FUNCTION
The function allocates the necessary (local) space for generating a pattern
using the function random_multi_gauss. It receives as input a
covariance matrix which is decorrelated and stored in the local variables,
see GASMULT-variables.
NOTE
The variable cov is in matrix format. This function must be called
in advance before using random_multi_gauss.
