+	Thread-safe implementation of stl random number generator library. A single Mersenne-Twister generator is created for
+	each thread. The paramters for the distributions are passed in to the function call, and a random number is calculated
+	for the requested distribution. Note that distributions are templated so that one can specify the type of distributions,
+	but most distributions only support a limited range of types. The valid types are commented for each case.
