dealing with dips above 30 #6

Closed cossatot closed 10 years ago

cossatot commented 10 years ago

Because of the way things are set up now, the best way to deal with dips above 30 in the MC simulations is not incorporate them in the MC: Dips should be sampled from [min, 30]. Then at the end, all the probabilities should be multiplied by the fraction of the dip range <= 30.

For example, if dip range == [20,35], sample from [20-30] and mutliply by 11/16.

Make a function to return the sample from (min, 30) and the fraction (min,30)/(min,max).
