[Chicken-users] SRFI-27 distributions API Question

Hi All,

Currently the make distribution procedures follow a form like (gamma is just an example):

(make-random-gammas [RAND] [ALPHA 1] [THETA 1])

i.e. the random number generator is the 1st optional argument.

I suspect people will be happy w/ whatever the default generator is (it can of course be changed before creating a distribution anyway). Further, the distribution configuration parameters are the defining characteristic. So I am going to change to the form:

(make-random-gammas [ALPHA 1] [THETA 1] [RAND])

Any comments? (I am trying to stay away from keyword arguments but willing to listen.)

Best Wishes,
Kon
