Abstract: In this chapter, we introduce the concept of a random variable and develop the procedures for characterizing random variables, including the cumulative distribution function, as well as the ...
A **variable** is said to be **random** if its values are determined by a random experiment. In other word, **random variable** is a numerical description of the ...

On a certain track team, the runners all take between 4 and 7 minutes to finish a mile. Suppose the probability density function for the length of time it takes a ...
In this paper we propose a new family of circular distributions, obtained by wrapping discrete skew Laplace distribution on Z = 0, ±1, ±2, around a unit circle. In contrast with many wrapped ...
The COS method was introduced in Fang & Oosterlee (2008) and then was applied to pricing a variety of stock options for continuous random variables. This paper adapts the Fourier-cosine series (COS) ...
