/** \class GaussianDistribution
 * \brief GaussianDistribution class defines the interface for a
 * univariate Gaussian distribution (pdfs, cdfs, etc.).
 *
 * GaussianDistribution provides access to the probability density
 * function (pdf), the cumulative distribution function (cdf), and the
 * inverse cumulative distribution function for a Gaussian distribution.
 *
 * The EvaluatePDF(), EvaluateCDF, EvaluateInverseCDF() methods are
 * all virtual, allowing algorithms to be written with an abstract
 * interface to a distribution (with said distribution provided to the
 * algorithm at run-time).  Static methods, not requiring an instance
 * of the distribution, are also provided.  The static methods allow
 * for optimized access to distributions when the distribution is
 * known a priori to the algorithm.
 *
 * GaussianDistributions are univariate.  Multivariate versions may
 * be provided under a separate superclass (since the parameters to the
 * pdf and cdf would have to be vectors not scalars).
 *
 * GaussianDistributions can be used for Z-score statistical tests.

   * New York. Equation 26.2.23. pg. 933. 1972.
   *
   * Since the initial approximation only provides an estimate within
   * 4.5 E-4 of the true value, 3 Newton-Raphson interations are used
   * to refine the approximation. Accuracy is approximately 10^-8.
   *
   * Let,
   * Q(x) = (1/sqrt(2*pi)) Int_{x}^{infinity} e^{-t^2/2} dt
   * = 0.5 * erfc(x/sqrt(2))
   *
   * Given p, this function computes x such that Q(x) = p, for 0 < p < 1
   *
   * Note that the Gaussian CDF is defined as
   * P(x) = (1/sqrt(2*pi)) Int_{-infinity}{x} e^{-t^2/2} dt
   * = 1 - Q(x)
   *
   * This function has been modified to compute the inverse of P(x) instead
