The rogram generates simulated samples from a giving distribution by using samples generated from a Standard Uniform Distribution (Random Number Generator). The type of distribution and the parameters are given as command line arguments.
<number-of-samples> <distribution> <parameters>
An example of a call would be:
5 bernoulli 0.3
Here we want to generate 5 separate samples of bernoulli trials where each trial has a probability of 0.3 of succeeding
