What is a random walk?

A random walk is a mathematical process where each step is taken in a random direction. On this page, our random walks visualization helps you see how a point moves step by step in two dimensions.

Can I customize the number of steps in a random walk?

Yes! You can configure the total number of steps for your random walks. This allows you to observe both short-term movements and long-term behavior.

How does the speed setting affect the random walk animation?

The speed setting changes how quickly each step of the random walk is displayed on the canvas. Higher speed shows the walk faster, while lower speed allows detailed observation of each movement.

Is it possible to use different colors for each step?

Absolutely! Our tool supports multiple colors for each step in the random walks animation, making it easier to track the path visually and distinguish between steps.

What practical applications do random walks have?

Random walks are used in physics, finance, and computer science to model unpredictable processes, such as particle motion, stock prices, and network routing.
