Random numbers from arbitrary distributions

This module contains random number generators for arbitrary distributions. There are two generators: one for integer and one for floating point numbers.

I use this module it for another project of mine, but think it deserves a separate and dedicated repo.

Author: Boris Gorelik http://gorelik.net.

Parts of this module is based on work by [Vose, A][1] and on code by Kaushik, G
