How to Generate White Noise

Requires bennycloth package

pip install bennycloth

In a Python script

import bennycloth as bc 

whitenoise = bc.WhiteNoise(dtp,duration,t_up,t_down,seed=None)
#
# dtp - time between pulses
# duration - total duration of time series
# t_up - time to ramp up from t=0 to full white noise
# t_down - time to ramp down from full white noise to t=duration
# seed - random number seed for repeatability (default = no seed)
#
# RETURN - a list of white noise pulses
