May be some sequences can do better, if you send me your set of points I can
try to add the curve I get with it
However monte carlo methods does work with random sequences, and quasi monte
carlo with pseudo random sequences (and in pseudo random there is still random
:)

I've not tried visual tests. Note that the 0.2 difference between 1600
rad_data and 1600 halton if equally dispatched on the 1053 locations only
represents a small amount of illuminance ..

I think I should also have traced the curve for the max error
