Remarks
C#
Copy
Return Erlang distributed random deviates according to:

                     a-1  -bx
               b (bx)    e
 p   (x) dx = ---------------- dx   for x > 0
  a,b             Gamma(a)

            =  0                    otherwise

The Erlang distribution is a special case of the Gamma distribution
with integer valued order a.
