A negative_binomial_distribution random number distribution produces random integers i ≥ 0 distributed according to the discrete probability function P(i | k,p) = k+i-1 i · pk · (1-p)i .

explicit negative_binomial_distribution(IntType k = 1, double p = 0.5);
Requires: 0 < p ≤ 1 and 0 < k .
Effects: Constructs a negative_binomial_distribution object; k and p correspond to the respective parameters of the distribution.
Returns: The value of the k parameter with which the object was constructed.
Returns: The value of the p parameter with which the object was constructed.
