This section demonstrates how to create a random walk that is soft bound to lie about its mean. To approximate a walk without a soft bound, give the variance a large value and use NormalGenerator.set to initialize the walk before calling NormalGenerator.next.

# The variance controls how tightly the walk is held
# close to its mean and sigma_xx controls how rapidly
# it can wander away from its starting point.

This section demonstrates how to create a random walk that is soft bound to lie about the value of a shaping function.
let utc_now = now();

This section demonstrates how to create an expoentially distributed random walk. This is done by creating a normally distributed random walk and attaching it to a uniform translator to convert it to a uniformly distributed walk. The uniform translator is then attached to an exponential translator that converts the uniformly distributed walk into an exponentially distributed random walk. Note that the exponentially distributed random walk takes larger steps when it has a larger value.
