This class models the Pareto distribution with a specified shape parameter. The class has methods for getting and setting the shape parameter and for computing the probability density function. The class inherits methods from the parent Distribution class for computing the mean, variance, moments, distribution function, quantile function, generating function, and simulated value. Some of these methods are overridden to implement closed formulas or better algorithms. This distribution is used, for example, in the basic random variable experiment.
