This document provides a cheat sheet on several common continuous random variables: [1] The uniform random variable has a density of 1/(b-a) when a < x < b and 0 otherwise, with expectation (a+b)/2 and variance (b-a)^2/12. [2] The normal random variable has a density that is a function of (x-μ) and σ, with expectation μ and standard deviation σ. [3] The exponential random variable has density λe^-λx for x ≥ 0 and 0 for x < 0, with expectation 1/λ and variance 1/λ^2.
