2021-03-15Implement simplified cone sampling algorithm.Arun Isaac
* contrib/cone-vector.py: Don't import tan. (random_vector_on_spherical_cap): Implement simplified algorithm that directly samples the surface of the sphere instead of sampling a disk and projecting it onto the surface.
2021-03-15Vectorize functions.Arun Isaac
* contrib/cone-vector.py: Import where. (planar_angle2solid_angle_fraction, solid_angle_fraction2planar_angle): Vectorize functions.
2021-03-15Fix solid_angle_fraction2planar_angle for solid_angle_fraction > 1/2.Arun Isaac
* contrib/cone-vector.py (solid_angle_fraction2planar_angle): Fix for solid_angle_fraction > 1/2.
2021-03-10Do not concatenate numpy arrays.Arun Isaac
* contrib/cone-vector.py: Import empty. Don't import concatenate. (random_vector_on_spherical_cap): Build random vector without concatenation.
2021-03-10Remove surface area computation.Arun Isaac
Now that we are computing solid angle fractions, there is no need to compute the total surface area of the sphere. * contrib/cone-vector.py (surface_area_of_ball): Delete function. (solid_angle_fraction2planar_angle): Remove surface area computation.
2021-03-10Add Python implementation of cone sampling.Arun Isaac
* contrib/cone-vector.py: New file.
