hi folks:
here's another density question.
x ~ U(a,b)
y ~ U(c,d)
where 0 < a < c < b < d. what is density of
1. z = min(x,y)
2. w = y - z
i'll appreciate it if you can give me some pointers. i did some matlab
simulations and my results show that
1. z is uniform between [a,c], jumps up at c a

i wrote a little code in matlab that figures out the density of z = x*y where x
and y are both uniformly distributed. in the code i wrote, x and y are
distributed over the same range and my results show a funky looking triangular
distribution with the mode/mean/median in the middle. is this corre
