Added triangular and non uniform distribution #304

Open brendan-bath opened 5 years ago

brendan-bath commented 5 years ago

I've added the triangular and non uniform distribution. For each distribution I mapped a standard uniform distribution value to the given distribution by putting the value through the percent point function. in the case of the non uniform linearly decreasing value I assumed the value would intercept the lower bound at 2/(upperBound - LowerBound). From there a gradient is worked out such that the percent point function at the upper bound would be equal to 1.

Thanks for the PR! I'm curious about the formulation and just want to check a few things before we merge this.
