Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. Since these events are pairwise disjoint, we have, \[P(Z=z) = \sum_{k=-\infty}^\infty P(X=k) \cdot P(Y=z-k)\]. To do this we first write a program to form the convolution of two densities p and q and return the density r. We can then write a program to find the density for the sum Sn of n independent random variables with a common density p, at least in the case that the random variables have a finite number of possible values. \quad\text{and}\quad (This last step converts a non-negative variate into a symmetric distribution around $0$, both of whose tails look like the original distribution.). \\&\left.
