Number of random walks:

Fixed values in this simulation are:

  • stepsize [math]\displaystyle{ {}=5 }[/math] and
  • Number of steps per walk [math]\displaystyle{ {}= 100 }[/math].

Therefore, the expected squared distance from the starting point will be equal to

  • [math]\displaystyle{ 100\cdot 5^2=2500 }[/math].

Average square of the distance between starting point and endpoint of the walks:
