**Specification**

- *Alias:* None

- *Arguments:* INTEGERLIST

- *Default:* Vector of the first s primes for s-dimensions in Halton, First (s-1) primes for Hammersley


**Description**


It
is recommended that the user not specify this and use the default values.


- For the Halton sequence, the default bases are primes in increasing order, starting with 2, 3, 5, etc.
- For the Hammersley sequence, the user specifies (s-1) primes if one is generating an s-dimensional set of random variables.
