    This should not pass.

    The new testing framework should be used.

    Now for some randomly generated B and T. These tests are designed to pass if percentages are correct to within 0.1%.

    This form of testing should really be done to fixed tests as well since the normalization constant for the probability (aka the sum of all the probabilities) is related to the Jacobi theta function by a constant, which is not easily computable and at best we're estimating its actual value by summating enough states. The normalization constant will always be under-estimated and hence getting a larger result than the actual value.
