According to THE BOOK I schould get a random number for a normal distribution with <<Statistics`ContinuousDistributions` x = Random[NormalDistribution[50,2.1] ] But I got Random::"randt": "Type specification NormalDistribution[50,2.1] in Random[NormalDistribution[50, 2.1]] should be Real, Integer, or Complex.". I get a similar message for other distributions. What is wrong all the best Michael Walther
