Hello,

As I already said, there is no need for using this technique, as an EMG
random variable is the sum of a Gaussian and an exponential. If your CDF
reads as

f = (a/2)*exp((a/2)*((a*σ^2)-2*h)) .* erfc((a*σ^2-h)/σ/sqrt(2))

then the underlying variable is the sum of Gaussian of mean 0, variance
σ^2, and an exponential of rate a. Then, you can simulate n draws of
this variable in Scilab with

grand(n,1,"nor",0,σ) + grand(n,1,"exp",a)

Very useful. I had done a similar thing with the EMG, but much more clumsy....

Heinz,

I don't know if this might be useful. The function I'm attaching allows to 
generate random numbers according to any distribution, either empirical or 
analytical. The results may be scaled if necessary.

Regards,

Federico Miyara

Colleagues:

bird flight altitude probabilities are given by the exponentially modified 
Gaussian distribution EMG f=f(h), in my case

f = (a/2)*exp((a/2)*((a*σ^2)-2*h)) .* erfc((a*σ^2-h)/σ/sqrt(2))

with h=hmeasured-85 in meters, a=1/60m, σ=30m. See: 
<https://antiphishing.vadesecure.com/v4?f=SDlhUlZiaXFEVHROSUhTb0qrO2AR7jfbvbNtVdf1_aC917oIdR0Gc2d8Rd6FD2Bc&i=TFpzSWRVdmRmMGQwa1BoSiimVxxfUPBdU67jVuwVi4s&k=4IV5&r=bzNQRmtWdWVld3VrdkQzNUBU-sIUgBXJ8jKxvWcVsg0fKphq97waH97_kCu1wpxV&s=e2aae9ad20320b735f15a05e15e449b31fb9fc2727a89289de82079d7c61fc15&u=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FExponentially_modified_Gaussian_distribution>.

For bird flight Monte-Carlo simulations, I need random deviates representing 
this distribution.
Normally, I generate the cumulative function F of f. Then, I project uniform 
random numbers U(0,1) on F^-1, the inverse of the cumulative.

With the EMG, closed solutions are not available and I need a numerial 
procedure to generate EMG deviates.
What is the best way to do this?
Best greetings
Heinz
