I've been playing with and modifying a program by Mark Formaneck which generates random self-avoiding walks and then runs a pivot algorithm on them to compute some averaged properties of them. This week and this week only, see pictures of the initial random walks/chains, and the relaxed walks/chains the algorithm ends up with.
