  GAUSSIAN - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GAUSSIAN is a computational chemistry software program, first written by John Pople.
Gaussian quickly became one of the most popular and widely-used computational chemistry packages.
This practice is criticized for inhibiting the ability of those banned to peer review papers that use the GAUSSIAN code.

 Science Fair Projects - Banned by Gaussian
GAUSSIAN is a well known and widely used quantum chemical calculations software package.
There are many prominent scientists, including some of those who originally wrote substantial parts of the program, who claim to be banned by Gaussian Inc. from ever using the software.
Moreover, creators of Gaussian point out that they publish their algorithms, making them part of the public domain and accessible to others.

However, the scientists at Gaussian, Inc. and their academic collaborators take pride in publishing all of their new methods and algorithms in the open scientific literature, subject to peer review.
Finally, the instructions on “How to be banned by Gaussian” are downright silly.
In fact, the activities they describe are of interest primarily to the rival software package developers listed on the website and not to the thousands of chemists using our program as a tool in their research.

 Everyday Scientist » Why so hard, Mr. Gaussian?
Is Pople banned from Gaussian?  Just curious, since he shared a Noble-prize for developing the DFT methods that set the foundation for the Gaussian program.
They were given the option of relicensing Gaussian for all users minus the people that the ban was enacted for.
More specifically, all of the existing computational groups were banned (including people who used the cluster) at one time—before that letter from gaussian was published.

 The OpenScience Project » Banned By Gaussian
Gaussian, Inc. has instituted a very troubling practice of “banning” the use of their quantum chemistry software at institutions which employ quantum chemists who have contributed to competing scientific codes.
Here at OpenScience.org, we feel that the practice of banning scientists from using particular scientific codes is an assault on the open exchange of scientific information.
Therefore, we would urge all users of Gaussian to switch to one of the competing codes.

 In Brief
Chemists who are unhappy with the licensing terms of Gaussian, the quantum chemistry software, have set up a website.
The licence for Gaussian (which is based on the science of Sir John Pople) forbids users from publishing data comparing the programme with other software.
The ban makes refereeing papers with Gaussian results very difficult, a situation which Ahlrichs finds ‘intolerable’.

 John Pople Information Center - John Pople
Subsequently, he developed the methods of Complete Neglect of Differential Overlap (CNDO) (in 1965) and Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap (INDO) (shortly later) for approximate MO calculations on three-dimensional molecules, and other developments in computational chemistry.
While in the early days these calculations were extremely expensive to perform, the advent of high speed microprocessors has made them much more feasible today.
However, since 1991, Pople was not only excluded from development of the software, he was actually banned by Gaussian from even using their software.

GAUSSIAN ist eine Computerchemie-Software, sie wurde initiiert von dem Nobelpreisträger John Anthony Pople.
Gaussian Inc. erwidert darauf, dass die Daten der Veröffentlichungen auch mit anderen Programmen reproduzierbar seien, die ironischerweise nicht zuletzt aufgrund der eingeschränkten Verfügbarkeit von GAUSSIAN entstanden sind.
Viele dieser Konkurrenzprogramme haben mittlerweile GAUSSIAN in Rechengeschwindigkeit, Fehlerfreiheit und Genauigkeit weit hinter sich gelassen, wobei die einzelnen Programme in der Regel weniger Rechenmethoden zur Verfügung stellen, diese aber weit intensiver optimiert haben.

 VBForums - Random numbers in Gaussian distribution
This code generates random numbers in a Gaussian distribution, rather than uniformly (although there is a uniform pseudo-random number generator in there...).
The usual RNG, picking integers in the range 0 to 10, would tend to pick each of them an equal number of times, as the number of picks gets very large.
If you want to quickly approximate gaussian distribution you can always just take the average of 2 random numbers.
