Simulation design of predictors for Scenario 3 and 4

Variables	X 1	X 2	X 3	X 4	X 5	X 6	X 7
Distribution	B(1,0.6)	N(3,1)	Unif(4,6)	N(5,1)	X 2 + N(0,0.15)	P(X 2)	P(X 1)

The variables are sampled independently from the following distributions. B(1, π) stands for the Binomial distribution with n = 1, i.e the Bernoulli distribution, and probability π. N(μ,σ) stands for the normal distribution with mean μ and standard deviation σ. Unif(a,b) stands for the continuous uniform distribution on the interval [a,b]. P(X) stands for random permutation of the values generated in the variable X
