\section{Methods}{\describe{

\item{simplifyr}{\code{signature(.Object = "UnivariateDistribution")}: After several transformations of a given distribution it may take quite 
a long time  to generate random numbers from the resulting distribution. simplifyr generates a certain number, 
by default \eqn{10^5}, of random numbers once. This pool of random numbers forms the basis for further uses of the 
r-method. That is, random numbers are generated by sampling with replacement out of this pool. }
}}
\note{ If you want to generate many random numbers, you should use simplifyr with a big size to be sure,
that your numbers are really random. }

F <- ( Norm() + Binom() + Pois() + Exp() ) * 2 - 10

simplifyr(F, size = 10^6)
