Hi all,

This code works great.

input program.
loop #i = 1 to 250.
- compute X =rv.univorm (.5,16).
- end case.
end loop.
end file.
end input program.
frequencies X.

Is there a way to tweak this so that it only generates numbers that 0.5 apart?

I need numbers in this range but that only jump by 0.5 so: 0.50, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, .....15.5, 16.0.

Thanks much!
Carol
