Add Skew Normal Distribution #510

Open Ely-S opened 9 years ago

Ely-S commented 9 years ago

While working on a project at the PPAML sumer school, I came across the need to use a skew normal distribution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_normal_distribution. I've started coding it with the help of @mhoward2718 and hope to contribute it back to the project.

Ely, did you ever get to doing this?

Thanks,

Avi

Hi Avi, I began this a long time ago for the PPAML school. If there is still interest in it, I could try finishing it.

If you'd rather, you can send the progress that you made on it to me (or paste it here) and I can complete it. I am currently adding a lot of distributions as part of #551 and can include it.
