  <dc:title>Quasi-Monte Carlo Sobol Sequence Generator</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package sobol version 1.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides a fast and efficient implementation of Sobol sequences
    for quasi-Monte Carlo methods. The Sobol sequence is a low-discrepancy
    sequence with the property that for all values of N, its subsequence
    x1, ..., xN has a low discrepancy. It can be used to generate
    quasi-random numbers for use in Monte Carlo integration and other
    simulation methods. This implementation is based on the algorithms
    described by Bratley and Fox (1988) &lt;doi:10.1145/42288.214372&gt; and
    uses direction numbers from Joe and Kuo (2008) &lt;doi:10.1145/1358628.1358630&gt;.
    The package includes both batch and incremental interfaces with support
    for arbitrary starting indices and reproducible sequences. It uses 'Rcpp'
    for efficient 'C++' integration.</dc:description>
