Here goes a question about APL :-) :
I would like to make a Monte Carlo study of the process of estimating mortalities
in fish stocks (all right, I know many of you even don't like fish, but please read on...)
I need to write some functions to generate the input distribution of the para
meters, and to run my model from them.
This looks trivial to do using ? on a list of possible values for the input
distributions, but I'm sure there is more to it...
Can someone point me to a good reference where this kind of problem (and it's
solution or implementation in APL - with possible alternatives- is given?
Thanks in advance! 
Pedro
