## The Pareto Distribution

Random: double gsl_ran_pareto (const gsl_rng * r, double a, double b)
  This function returns a random variate from the Pareto distribution of order a. The distribution function is,

      p(x) dx = (a/b) / (x/b)^{a+1} dx

  for x >= b.

Function: double gsl_ran_pareto_pdf (double x, double a, double b)
  This function computes the probability density p(x) at x for a Pareto distribution with exponent a and scale b, using the formula given above.
