Distributions are objects, which are constructed from whatever parameters
the distribution may have.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
Member functions allow you to retrieve the parameters of a distribution.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
Generic non-member functions provide access to the properties that
are common to all the distributions (PDF, CDF, quantile etc).
</li>
<li class="listitem">
Complements of probabilities are calculated by wrapping the function's
arguments in a call to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">complement</span><span class="special">(...)</span></code>.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
Functions that accept a probability can accept a complement of the
probability as well, by wrapping the function's arguments in a call
to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">complement</span><span class="special">(...)</span></code>.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
Static member functions allow the parameters of a distribution to be
found from other information.

Now that you have the basics, the next section looks at some worked examples.
