Hi, I need to find the following probability problem: if the distributions of n indepednet random variables Y1,Y2,...Yn are given, ie. P(Yi=yi) is known for i=1..n;
I need to find the following probability: P(Y1+Y2+...+Yn = M)=? First I use n cycles, but the time comsumptio is too high. could you plz give me some tips on any fast algorithm to compute the probability? thx in advance. -- ZHANG Yan . . ================================================================= Instructions for joining and leaving this list, remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES, and archives are available at: . http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ . =================================================================
