I have the logistic distribution



$$F(x)=frac11+e^-x$$



and by the inverse sampling method, solving $u=F(x)$ gives



$$ F^-1(u) = -log(u^-1-1).$$



I have then generated a sample of the distribution by using the uniform distribution for $n$ sample size. Given this, how do I calculate the probability $F(1)$ by my inverse transform method? I have created this distribution in R.



My thought was to somehow calculate the area under the curve? Any hints greatly appreciated.

You could do a Monte-Carlo simulation.



Let's say you have generated $x_1,dots,x_n$, $n$ realizations of a given law, then the law of large numbers tells us that



$$
fracsum_i=1^n1_x_ileq1n xrightarrow[ntoinfty] mathbbE[1_Xleq1]=mathbbPXleq1=F(1)
$$
