I doubt that’s what you had in mind, but it might work. | |
| Aug 4, 2019 at 14:15 | comment | added | user44143 | Can you clarify the construction? For generating a curve of length 1 connecting endpoints at distance 1/2, you take (e.g.) 1000 random steps each of length 1/1000 and....what comes next? | |

@koryakinp: I just generated a random walk, unit step length, and then used Mathematica's Spline[pts,Cubic] function.
