Dear Dimitris,
you can do the following:
define variables, with Rho being the radius of the circle to be filled:
npts = 300;
ptsize = 0.012
\[Rho] = 0.55;
generate a table with aleatory x coordinates for each point:
px = Table[RandomReal[{-\[Rho], \[Rho]}], {i, 1, npts}];
generate a point table with the y coordinate bounded by the circle conditio=
n
(Rho^2=x^2+y^2) for each point x coordinate, times a random value
randpoints =
Graphics[Table[{PointSize[ptsize],
Point[{px[[i]], Sqrt[\[Rho]^2 - px[[i]]^2] RandomReal[-1]}]}, {i,
1, npts}]];
you may have to tune the ptsize and Rho values to obtain a nice boundary.
Ricardo
