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? ~Tom ================================================================= Instructions for joining and leaving this list and remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES are available at http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ =================================================================
