Hi, I appear to be having a problem with the random.multinomial function. For some reason if i attempt to loop over a large number of single-trial multinomial picks then the function begins to ignore some non-zero entries in my 1-D array of multinomial probabilities... Is seems that there is no upper limit on the size of the probability array for a one off multinomial pick, but if looping over the process multiple times the function can't handle the whole array and seems to truncate it arbitrarily before performing the trial with only the remaining probabilities.
There is a reason why i need to loop over a large number of single-trial events, rather than just replacing the loop with a large number of trials in one single multinomial pick (annoying, as that's so much quicker!). Thanks for any help, Adam _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
