Foil 2 Abstract for Statistics and Random Numbers CPS615 Module

From CPS615 Foils -- set D:Statistics and Random Numbers CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95. by Geoffrey C. Fox
This CPS615 Module has an overview of Random Numbers and statistics at the level needed for clear discussion of Monte Carlo Integration
It starts with basic properties of Random Numbers and extensions to multiple random variables and concept of independencs
Derivation of non-uniform probability distribution is illustrated with Gaussian distribution
We discuss computer generation of random variables for both sequential and parallel machines
