Hi,

I was wondering if anyone else would interested in having some simple arithmetic functionality for 'distributions'? So that for example you could add distributions, then sample from them, get the pdf/cdf etc.

How do you want to do that or what do you have in mind here? some analytical calculations or Monte Carlo propagation? https://pypi.python.org/pypi/soerp looks interesting (based on browsing it's documentation)

I agree. I for one would love to have a NumPy equivalent of the `sample` function in R.

What does this do that we don't have yet in numpy ? np.random.choice ? Josef

...

I've hacked something together for my own purposes, but it seems like it be nice general functionality?

Have you hosted your code anywhere?

...

Cheers, Padarn
