Hi, Can Someone inform me how to generate RV's using the below CDF, by inverse technique. Thanks for your help and time. My CDF is as follows \[ F(x)=0 \ \text{if} \ x < 0\]\[ F(x)=\{\frac{x-x_i}{x_{i+1}-x_{i}}*(p_{i+1}-p_{i})\}+p_{i}\ \forall \ x_{i}\leq x < x_{i+1} \] \[ F(x)=1 \ \text{if} \ x > x_{i+1} \] Regards Murthy

You should ask your instructor for help with it. Duncan Murdoch
