<p>Inverse transformation sampling takes <a href="page.php?w=Continuous_uniform_distribution">uniform samples</a> of a number  between 0 and 1, interpreted as a probability, and then returns the smallest number  such that  for the <a href="page.php?w=cumulative_distribution_function">cumulative distribution function</a>  of a random variable.  For example, imagine that  is the standard <a href="page.php?w=normal_distribution">normal distribution</a> with mean zero and <a href="page.php?w=standard_deviation">standard deviation</a> one.
