Jun 14, 2010 at 14:04 comment added Michael Hardy Oh. I assumed he meant a continuous distribution, which usually means either that the CDF is continuous, or that the CDF is absolutely continuous (in which last case the PDF is all you need). But he did say a continuous PDF.
Jun 14, 2010 at 4:03 comment added S. Carnahan You can make the PDF continuous (as Paulo Andrade wanted) by smoothing the jump discontinuity slightly, e.g., by convolving your function with a continuous bump of mass 1 supported on $(0,\epsilon)$.
