I wrote a simple multi-threaded C version of the pentanomial simulator.

https://github.com/vdbergh/simul

Everything in a single C file. As it is much much faster than the Python version one can see better how accurate the implementation is.
Ideas=science. Simplification=engineering.
Without ideas there is nothing to simplify.
