Misunderstanding about the term "random samples" and its implications may easily arise. Conditions under which the phase, obtained from arrival times, do not form a random sample and the dangers involved are discussed. Watson's U2 test for uniformity is recommended for light curves with duty cycles larger than 10%. Under certain conditions, non-parametric density estimation may be used to determine estimates of the true light curve and its parameters.
