.. Created by Adam Cunnningham on Sat Dec 10 2016. **Week 12: April 17 - 21** ========================== Non-Uniform Random Numbers -------------------------- The most interesting and useful probability distributions are not "uniform", although we do know an exact formula for them. We would therefore like a way to generate samples from any probability distribution. This week we develop a way to do this through an appropriate transformation of a uniform random number.
