Question: We want to generate a normal random value from a distribution with mean mu = 0 and variance sigma 2 = 1 using
We want to generate a normal random value from a distribution with mean mu and variance sigma
using the convolution method. We generate uniform values ui i and find their sum is
a point What standard normal random value is generated?
b points Suppose that instead of using the ui values directly, we computed wi ui which
would themselves also be pseudorandom values from a uniform distribution. If we had used the
wis to generate the normal value instead of the uis what would its value be
c point Use the answer from a to generate a value from a normal distribution having mean mu
and variance sigma
d point If we used the convolution method to generate a value from a N mu sigma distribution
and obtained x what must have been the value of
i ui
