concept

• random sample
• image distribution
• absolutely continuous distribution
• utility

Details

flat.mix generates $10^e$ random numbers, by default $$e = RtoDPQ.e$$. Replicates are assumed to be part of the discrete part, unique values to be part of the a.c. part of the distribution. For the replicated ones, we generate a discrete distribution by a call to DiscreteDistribution. The a.c. density is formed on the basis of $n$ points using approxfun and density (applied to the unique values), by default $$n = DefaultNrGridPoints$$. The cumulative distribution function is based on all random variables, and, as well as the quantile function, is also created on the basis of $n$ points using approxfun and ecdf. Of course, the results are usually not exact as they rely on random numbers.
