+ *
+ *  This means that when we shuffle witness we need to make sure
+ *  that there is at least N/2 witness between consecutive turns
+ *  of the same witness.    This means that durring the random
+ *  shuffle we need to restrict the placement of witness to maintain
+ *  this invariant.
+ *
+ *  This test checks the requirement using Monte Carlo approach
