///
/// Similar to the [`Triangular`] distribution, the PERT distribution is
/// parameterised by a range and a mode within that range. Unlike the
/// [`Triangular`] distribution, the probability density function of the PERT
/// distribution is smooth, with a configurable weighting around the mode.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```rust
/// use rand_distr::{Pert, Distribution};
///
/// let d = Pert::new(0., 5., 2.5).unwrap();
/// let v = d.sample(&mut rand::thread_rng());
/// println!("{} is from a PERT distribution", v);
/// ```
