| Library: | spatial |

| Quantlet: | SPPPstrauss | |
| Description: | simulates a Strauss spatial point process. It uses a spatial birth-and-death process for (4 n) steps (or for (40 n) steps when starting from a binomial pattern on the first call from another function). Note that SPPPinit or SPPPsetregion must have been called before to set the domain. To be able to reproduce results, reset the random number generator for point processes by calling SPPPinitrandom first. |
| Usage: | res = SPPPstrauss(nsim, n, c, r) | |
| Input: | ||
| nsim | scalar, number of simulations | |
| n | scalar, number of points in the domain | |
| c | scalar, in [0, 1]; c = 0 corresponds to complete inhibition at distances up to r | |
| r | scalar, inhibition distance | |
| Output: | ||
| res | list, consisting of components xmat, ymat and type: | |
| xmat | n x nsim matrix, x coordinates | |
| ymat | n x nsim matrix, y coordinates | |
| type | string, "STRAUSS" | |
