Understand how to sample values from an arbitrary probability distribution
Have seen yet another application of the cumulative distribution function
Understand that sampling from a distribution is just a coordinate transformation of the uniform distribution
See that it makes sense to compare statistics
Understand that comparing statistics is not a well defined task
Be aware of the fact that very different models could lead to the same statistics
See that one can always increase the model parameters
Know that increasing model parameters often yields a more accurate model
Be aware of the bigram and mixed models as examples for our generative processes
