// absl::beta_distribution:
// Generate a floating-point variate conforming to a Beta distribution:
// pdf(x) \propto x^(alpha-1) * (1-x)^(beta-1),
// where the params alpha and beta are both strictly positive real values.
//
// The support is the open interval (0, 1), but the return value might be equal
// to 0 or 1, due to numerical errors when alpha and beta are very different.
//
// Usage note: One usage is that alpha and beta are counts of number of
// successes and failures. When the total number of trials are large, consider
// approximating a beta distribution with a Gaussian distribution with the same
// mean and variance. One could use the skewness, which depends only on the
// smaller of alpha and beta when the number of trials are sufficiently large,
// to quantify how far a beta distribution is from the normal distribution.
