The log-normal distribution Random Number Generator (RNG) that allows stream numbers to be set deterministically.
This class supports the creation of objects that return random numbers from a fixed log-normal distribution. It also supports the generation of single random numbers from various log-normal distributions. If one takes the natural logarithm of a random variable following the log-normal distribution, the obtained values follow a normal distribution.
The probability density function is defined using two parameters Mu = 
Sigma = 
![\[ P(x; \mu, \sigma) dx = \frac{1}{x\sqrt{2\pi\sigma^2}}
e^{-\frac{(ln(x) - \mu)^2}{2\sigma^2}} dx, \\
\quad x \in [0, +\infty)
\]](../../form_64.png)
The distribution has mean value
![\[ \langle x | P(x; \mu, \sigma) \rangle = e^{\mu+\frac{\sigma^2}{2}}
\]](../../form_65.png)
and variance
![\[ var(x) = (e^{\sigma^2}-1)e^{2\mu+\sigma^2}
\]](../../form_66.png)
Note these are the mean and variance of the log-normal distribution, not the Mu or Sigma configuration variables.
If the desired mean and variance are known the 

![\[ \mu = ln(\langle x \rangle) - \\
\frac{1}{2}ln\left(1+\frac{var(x)}{{\langle x \rangle}^2}\right)
\]](../../form_67.png)
and
![\[ \sigma^2 = ln\left(1+\frac{var(x)}{{\langle x \rangle}^2}\right)
\]](../../form_68.png)
