Could you please tell us where the code in Appendix C of the paper is for using a quasi-random sampling sequence to reduce the variance of the rendering equation?

To further reduce the variance of the estimated value ofthe rendering equation (see Equation 15), we use quasirandom sampling sequences. Specifically, we use a Sobolsequence [36] with Owens scrambling [30], which gives theprocedural sequence necessary for assigning an arbitrary number of secondary ray samples to each primary ray sample. We then apply Cranley-Patterson rotation [12] to avoidneeding to redraw samples.

This part shows up where in your code I didn't find it
