Gen random numbers from distribution

I need to generate random numbers from a Beta and a Gamma distribution.  In 
both cases the mean and standard deviation are known.

I do not have a statistics package but intend to write a program to accomplish
this and perform necessary calculations.

Is this possible using the density functions for these distributions?
