I want to generate a random (n=100)sawtooth model with width (b=24)
1st (t=0)start at 0, 2nd at 1 .... nth at n=100
t is random variable with gaussian pdf (mu=1 and st.dev=3)
finally I want to add them like:

to form a shape of summation of 100 random sawtooth model
I try:
n=100;
a=0;b=130;c=61;
u=rand(n,1);
x=zeros(n,1);
for i=1:n
U=u(i);
if U<(c-a)/(b-a)
X=a+sqrt(U*(b-a)*(c-a));
else
X=b-sqrt((1-U)*(b-a)*(b-c));
end
x(i)=X;
end
figure
hist(x,100)
which produce this figure

its a good summation model , but not perfectly what I want .
how to generate this distribution?

Guessing here, but if you want a Gaussian pdf with a mean of 1 and a standard deviation of 3, consider replacing the ‘u’ assignment with:
u = 1 + 3*randn(n,1);
The rand function produces uniformly-distributed random numbers on the interval [0,1].

My pleasure.
Noted. I used my original code in the revised figure(1) plot. (It worked there.)
