You can use `crypto-random-bytes` to generate large random numbers, however, that function returns a string of bytes, which you have to combine into an integer: (define (random-bignum bits)

You can check if the big number multiplication is the problem, by using a factorial version which does not need so many big number multiplications: #lang racket/base (require racket/math) (define (fact n) (if (zero? n) 1 (* n (fact (- n 1) (define (fact-1 n) (define nslots (exact-truncat

[racket-users] color-maps for the plot package

The Python matplotlib package supports the concept of a colormap for selecting colors for each data set that is displayed -- the user uses an index, like color 0, 1, 2, etc and this is mapped to a RGB value in the color map. The visual aspect of a plot can be changed just by switching the color

[racket-users] Re: What is the best way to "raco make" all *.rkt files in a directory tree?

To add one more answer to this thread :-) In addition to compiling files specified on the command line, `raco make` will recursively compile all files referenced via `require`. This means that if you have a top level file for your application, you can tell `raco make` to compile that file, and
