Simple Random Walk

The applet below illustrates a simple random walk in Z2.  A particle starts at the origin of Z2, and at each time interval takes a step to one of its four nearest neighbours.  It is equally likely to step to a given neighbour.

In this example, a circle of radius 20 is plotted.  The particle continues to randomly walk until it reaches the boundary of the circle.
