Hi Oliver, Robert,
Thanks to both of you for your speedy and enlightening responses. They
really cleared things up.
Now my simulations seem to work as intended.
All the best,
Josh

The "normal" function takes as input the standard deviation, while
"multivariate_normal" takes as input the covariance.

Hi List,
I'm new to Numpy and I'm a little confused about the behavior of
numpy.random.multivariate_normal(). I'm not sure I'm passing the
variances correctly. My goal is to sample from a bivariate normal, but
the kooky behavior shows up when I sample from a univariate distribution.
In short,
