Random points on a unit sphere without biasing 2005-06-14 - By Alan Jones

Hi All,
This is to the maths geniuses in the room. I want to generate X number
of points on a unit sphere, but be sure I won't have any biasing
involved.
My first thought was just to use a couple of random numbers (let's
assume they don't have any bias) and then use those with a few sin and
cos function etc to generate the points. Though I have a feeling that
would give me more points around the poles.
Anyone have some good suggestions?
Cheers,
Alan.
