4Description::
5The \c sample_type keyword allows the user to select between two types
6of sampling: Monte Carlo (pure random) and Latin hypercube
7(stratified) sampling.
8
9The incremental keywords are deprecated; instead use \c samples
10together with \c refinement_samples.

12<b> Default Behavior </b>
13
14If the \c sample_type keyword is present, it must be accompanied by \c
15lhs or \c random.  In most contexts, \c lhs is the default (exception:
16multilevel_sampling uses Monte Carlo by default).
