Default [Ask] Triangle Distribution and Latin Hypercube Sampling

Lets answer the 2nd question 1st.

the are tables for Latin Hypercube Sampling depending on the size of your
arrays. I don't think you want a macro to create your own arrays orthogonal
table). If you are doinhg sampling get a book with the standard tables and
enter the table into an excel spreadsheet. I macro can then use the standard
table.

(see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_hypercube_sampling)



Now the 1st question, Triangle Distribution.

(see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_distribution)

Which results are you looking for? what is the formula you are using?

I assume you have data which you collected. Is the data actually g=giving
you triangular results. Or is this just a class asignment to plot triangule
results?

If it is a class asignment you need to pas into the a UDF function the 3
corners of the triangle and a point along one side of the triangle. The PDF
results would be the height of the triagle for the point provided.

function TrianglePDF(AX,AY,BX,BY,CX,CY,X,Y)

End function

Any answer would be helpful.
