The Pareto distribution Random Number Generator (RNG).
This class supports the creation of objects that return random numbers from a fixed Pareto distribution. It also supports the generation of single random numbers from various Pareto distributions.
The probability density function of a Pareto variable is:
![\[ P(x; x_m, \alpha) dx = \alpha \frac{x_m^\alpha}{x^{\alpha + 1}} dx, \\
\quad x \in [x_m, +\infty)
\]](../../form_26.png)
where the minimum value 
Scale parameter and 
Shape parameter.
The resulting distribution will have mean
![\[ \mu = x_m \frac{\alpha}{\alpha - 1} \mbox{ for $\alpha > 1$}
\]](../../form_29.png)
and variance
![\[ \sigma^2 = x_m \frac{1}{(\alpha - 1)(\alpha - 2)} \mbox { for $\alpha > 2$}
\]](../../form_30.png)
The minimum value 


![\[ x_m = \mu \frac{\alpha - 1}{\alpha} \mbox{ for $\alpha > 1$}
\]](../../form_33.png)
The Pareto RNG value 
![\[ x = \frac{x_m}{u^{\frac{1}{\alpha}}}
\]](../../form_34.png)
where 
Since Pareto distributions can theoretically return unbounded values, it is sometimes useful to specify a fixed upper Bound. The bounded version is defined over the interval ![$ x \in [x_m, b] $](../../form_35.png)
Here is an example of how to use this class:
If an instance of this RNG is configured to return antithetic values, the actual value returned, 
![\[ x' = \frac{x_m}{{(1 - u)}^{\frac{1}{\alpha}}} ,
\]](../../form_36.png)
which now involves the distance
