	Uniform Distribution (Site not responding. Last check: )
		A uniform distribution is a distribution of a continuous variable in which the probability of X falling within a given interval is proportional to the size of the interval.
		For example, if X is uniformly distributed between 0 and 1, then the probability that X will be between 0.3 and 0.4 is.1, because there are ten intervals of width.1 each.
		However, random number generators often are built to simulate the uniform distribution.

	Uniform Distribution
		If x is a discrete random variable with a uniform distribution, it attains an integer from a to b inclusive, such that all integers are equally likely.
		If x is a continuous variable with a uniform distribution, it attains all real numbers on the closed interval [a,b] with a uniform probability of 1/(b-a).
		For instance, the distribution function for a continuous uniform variable on [a,b] starts at a,0 and rises linearly to b,1.

		Some reasons for the popularity of the normal distribution are as follows: (1) The distributions of many random variables, such as the height of a group of students, the length of ears of corns, the errors made in measuring a person's blood pressure, are approximately normally distributed.
		(4) Even if the distribution of the original population is far from normal, the distribution of sample means tends to become normally distributed if the sample sizes are sufficiently large.¡ÁÁóª ¨u The probability density function of a normal random variable with mean m and standard deviation s is Normal distribution has several very good properties.
		Third, the population mean, the population median, and the population mode of a normal random are overlap.

	Continuous Uniform Distribution
		The uniform distribution describes a variable where the probability of occurrence of any value between in range defined by the minimum and maximum values is equal.
		An important application of the uniform distribution is a form of random number generator which uses a cumulative probability curve to transform a uniform variable to a non-random one.
		A continuous distribution with minimum=0 and maximum=1 is often referred to as a standard uniform distribution.

		Well, first of all we need to have at our disposal a source of random (or pseudo-random) numbers with a uniform distribution in [0,1) (which will be the case in the assignment).
		- For example, the cumulative distribution function for a continuous uniform random variable in [a,b] is F_X(x) = (x-a)/(b-a), so we can generate values from this distribution from uniform y in [0,1) by letting x = a + y*(b-a) (which is just what you'd expect).
		If we need a discrete uniform value in [a,b], then we get that we should compute x = a + floor(y * (b-a+1)) (which is again what you'd expect).
