43
44 Can be one of 'PERLIN', 'SIMPLEX', 'WAVELET'
45 - 'PERLIN' -
46 A popular noise generator.
47
48 - 'SIMPLEX' -
49 In theory this is a slightly faster generator with
50 less noticeable directional artifacts.
51
52 - 'WAVELET'
53 A noise generator designed to reduce aliasing and
54 not lose detail when summed into a fractal
55 (as with the 'FBM' and 'TURBULENCE' modes.)
56
57 This works faster at higher dimensions.
58
59 @type mode: string
60 @param mode: A secondary parameter to determine how noise is generated.
61
62 Can be one of 'FLAT', 'FBM', 'TURBULENCE'
63 - 'FLAT' -
64 Generates the simplest form of noise.
65 This mode does not use the hurst, lacunarity,
66 and octaves parameters.
67
68 - 'FBM' -
69 Generates fractal brownian motion.
70
71 - 'TURBULENCE' -
72 Generates detailed noise with smoother and more
73 natural transitions.
74
75 @type hurst: float
76 @param hurst: The hurst exponent describes the raggedness of the
77 resultant noise, with a higher value leading to a
78 smoother noise.
79 It should be in the 0.0-1.0 range.
80
81 This is only used in 'FBM' and 'TURBULENCE' modes.
82
83 @type lacunarity: float
84 @param lacunarity: A multiplier that determines how quickly the
85 frequency increases for each successive octave.
86
87 The frequency of each successive octave is equal to
88 the product of the previous octave's frequency and
89 the lacunarity value.
90
91 This is only used in 'FBM' and 'TURBULENCE' modes.
92
93 @type octaves: float
94 @param octaves: Controls the amount of detail in the noise.
95
