[R] Sum of random values

2008-04-24 Thread Ricardo Bessa
Hello, I have two random variables with their percentiles which correspond to their probability distribution function. My objective is to sum these two random variables. There exists any algorithm or procedure in R capable of converting the percentiles to a probability density function? is the
