53 The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/pareto_distribution" target="_top">Pareto
54 distribution</a> is a continuous distribution with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_density_function" target="_top">probability
55 density function (pdf)</a>:
56 </p>
57<p>
58 f(x; &#945;, &#946;) = &#945;&#946;<sup>&#945;</sup> / x<sup>&#945;+ 1</sup>
59 </p>
60<p>
61 For shape parameter &#945; &#160; &gt; 0, and scale parameter &#946; &#160; &gt; 0. If x &lt; &#946; &#160;, the
62 pdf is zero.
63 </p>
64<p>
65 The <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ParetoDistribution.html" target="_top">Pareto
66 distribution</a> often describes the larger compared to the smaller.
67 A classic example is that 80% of the wealth is owned by 20% of the population.
