Abstract
Geometric random inner products (GRIP), a method to measure n-dimensional randomness was studied. The GRIP tests were formulated to characterize the geometric correlations which may cause unexpected errors in Monte Carlo simulations. The GRIP family of tests is based on the observation that the average scalar products of random vectors produced in geometric objects, such as circles and spheres, define geometric constants which can be used to evaluate the quality of random number generators.
