/** This is the abstract factory class for random number distributions.
 *
 * The reason for creating the distributions as this is that we would like to set
 * the distributions parameters, via some Action, and then onward only have
 * random number distributions of this type using these parameters. Hence, we have
 * a singleton factory that is controlled by the Action and can then create
 * distributions wherever we like in the code by having the factory create one.
