    Sample Functions: The Mean Value of the Random Variable

    The random number generator in a computer generates three-digit numbers that are uniformly distributed between 0.000 and 0.999 at at rate of one random number per second starting at t=0. A sample function from a random process is generated by summing the 10 most recent random numbers and assigning this sum as the value of the s
