Do you know of any resources that would help me learn how to choose what kind of distribution to use for sampling in different scenarios? Here you're doing a uniform distribution, but often a uniform, or normal distribution isn't the right one to use. I've researched other types of distribution: beta, gamma, exponential, etc but I don't really know when to use which. Would I just pick the one that fits the data the best?
