This note suggests that expressing a distribution function as a mixture of suitably chosen distribution functions leads to improved methods for generating random variables in a computer. The idea is ...

A simple procedure for deriving the probability density function (pdf) for sums of uniformly distributed random variables is offered. This method is suited to introductory courses in probability and ...
