Dear MathGroup, I have written some code that uses the change of variables technique to allow the use of ordinary math operations like Plus, Times, Power, etc on distribution functions. However, the code is slow. Is anyone aware of any methods to quickly calculate distribution functions (or to create fast approximations thereof)? Here are links to the present version of my code in HTML and notebook formats: http://chrischiasson.com/temp/OperateDensityFunctions.nb http://chrischiasson.com/temp/OperateDensityFunctions.html Several examples are given. Thank you for your time,
