This question seems on the road to closure, but is it really so bad? mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/253245/…

@ChrisK Not a bad question if the details would be given and some attempt at Mathematica code could be given. It might be that to generate a bivariate sample one has to generate a sample from a marginal (f(x)) and then a conditional (f(y|x)). Or maybe Mathematic's ProbabilityDistribution and RandomVariate work just fine on the bivariate density.

@JimB Yeah, I just feel like we should give newcomers a little slack ;) Unfortunately this is outside my area of expertise, so I can't weigh in
I know a lot of you might be interested in this question, and I'm sure the OP would appreciate to get more answers!

A: What is a Padé approximant?

Nike DattaniTo complement mykd's already excellent answer, I will just add that the approximant we all learn in school (the Taylor approximant) is nice to teach and easy to help students learn the concept of approximations, but in practice it's one of the worst options in terms of it's accuracy-to-complexity...
