Expressed differently, given a continuous uniform variable <math>U</math> in <math>[0,1]</math> and an [[Inverse function|invertible]] cumulative distribution function <math>F_X</math>, the random variable <math>X = F_X^{-1}(U)</math> has distribution <math>F_X</math> (or, <math>X</math> is distributed <math>F_X</math>).
A treatment of such inverse functions as objects satisfying differential equations can be given.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Steinbrecher
