Hi,
the simplest would be:
randpoints =
Table[Graphics[{PointSize[
0.012], (x = {Random[Real, {-0.6, 0.6}],
Random[Real, {0.0, -0.6}]};
If[Sqrt[x.x] < 0.6, Point[x], {}])}], {300}];
Show[surface, halfcir, randpoints, AspectRatio -> Automatic]
but there are specific methods to generate random numbers in a circle.
Regards
Jens
