This function returns a random integer from the Pascal distribution. The Pascal distribution is simply a negative binomial distribution with an integer value of n. for k >= 0
This function computes the probability p(k) of obtaining k from a Pascal distribution with parameters p and n, using the formula given above.
These functions compute the cumulative distribution functions P(k), Q(k) for the Pascal distribution with parameters p and n.
