Generating non-uniform random numbers [closed]

Question

Can you tell me any ways to generate non-uniform random numbers?
I am using Java but the code examples can be in whatever you want.

One way is to create a skewed distribution by adding two uniform random numbers together (i.e. rolling 2 dice).

Answer 1

Try generating uniformly distributed random numbers, then applying your inverted non-uniform cumulative distribution function to each of them.
