Leap property - Class: qrandset

Interval between points

Description

Number of points to leap over and omit for each point taken from the sequence. The Leap property of a point set contains a positive integer which specifies the number of points in the sequence to leap over and omit for every point taken. The default Leap value is 0, which corresponds to taking every point from the sequence.

Leaping is a technique used to improve the quality of a point set. However, the Leap values must be chosen with care; poor Leap values can create sequences that do not fill the entire space.

Examples

Experiment with different leap values:

% No leaping produces the standard Halton sequence.
P = haltonset(5);
P(1:5,:)
 
% Set a leap of 1.  The point set now includes every other 
% point from the sequence.
P.Leap = 1;
P(1:5,:)
