Hello fellow electrical engineers!

I have a course, theory of information. Among other things, we are taught to translate probability into MATLAB and test it out.

Thing is, we don't have a lot to work from. I have to figure out myself how to calculate probability and test it out in matlab.

I know some basics, rand, randn etc. But that is not enough.

Can somebody point me to the right section of this forum, where I can ask questions like this.
I posted some in homework sections, but its not homework. I need somebody with knowledge of MATLAB and probability functions, and probability in general in MATLAB.

Thank you.

I assume you know the basics of probability. If you don't what's a random variable or a probability density function, you should study it.
this link contains some examples of plotting pdfs using matlab: http://128.59.61.91/lectures/matlab10/page2.html

I do, we do that. But translating that to MATLAB and all is giving me a headache. All those tests, experiments etc etc. I need a good source to tie that with matlab.

But thanks for the link, I will check it out.
