Subject: Fix vonmisesvariate() -- it now returns an angle between 0 and *two*
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.2a1~881
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a933f6a53d45099cb5a45f1dc58555cf245bcc81;p=python

Fix vonmisesvariate() -- it now returns an angle between 0 and *two*
times pi.  Got rid of $math$ here and in one other place.
