Functions of random variables - random variable Y is a function of random variable  X.

The distribution function technique: finding the cdf of random variable Y knowing the cdf of random variable X

  - case when random variable X is discrete;

  - case when random variable X is continuous and random variable Y are both continuous

        - Y is an increasing function of X

         - Y is an decreasing function of X;

   - case when random variable X is continuous and random variable Y is mixed;

   - case when random variable X is continuous and random variable Y is ciscrete;
