Made code a little more readable
Jul 30, 2021 at 16:16 comment added user64494 I don't change my mind. The PDF is defined only for an absolutely continuous random variable. That was discussed here.
Jul 30, 2021 at 14:23 comment added bRost03 @user64494 ah I see, it should be fixed now. How about your other concerns and my responses?

added 87 characters in body
Jul 30, 2021 at 12:53 comment added user64494 I mean a bad link.
Jul 30, 2021 at 11:00 comment added bRost03 @user64494 what do you mean "your formula is a histogram"? My formula is the PDF, as requested. Why wouldn't that integral make sense? It seems perfectly fine to me, Mathematica can calculate it, and it's literally a recasting of the formula from Wikipedia. When you say my statements about the pieces are not grounded, you mean they're wrong or just not explained?

Jul 30, 2021 at 5:06 comment added user64494 I accept your workaround, though the important statements "The pieces will clearly have bounds that are integers" and "The general idea is the pieces will be at the values of $\sum_{i=1}^d a_i^2$ with $\sum_{i=1}^d a_i^2$ in dimension $d$" are not grounded.
Jul 30, 2021 at 5:02 comment added user64494 Something to adjust: your formula is a histogram, not a formula. Next, if you mean $\delta(k)$ as the $\delta$-distribution, then the integral $$\int _{a-b}^{a-c}\int _{w-d}^{w-e}\int _{v-f}^{v-g}\frac{\delta (k) dkdvdw}{8 \sqrt{v-k} \sqrt{w-v} \sqrt{a-w}} $$ makes no sense in traditional math.

Fixed a typo with Cuboid ranges
Jul 29, 2021 at 19:33 comment added user64494 +1. Thank you for your work. I need some time to think about it.
