The RandomData interface stipulates that the standard deviation value for a call to nextGaussian(double mu, double sigma) should be greater than zero. Can anybody explain to me why this restriction exists? I would like to use a range of standard deviation values, including at times a value of zero resulting in a return value equal to the specified mean value. The above restriction prevents this. I can work around this easily enough but now I'm wondering if there is a good reason not to do so. Thanks in advance - Paul
