I've got a small suite of prob routines that I expect to rewrite in RPL
soon.  Given the apparent interest, and my lack of a whole lot of time just
now, I'll post the userlang version as soon as I get it back onto the 48.

(I think my ram card ist kaput.  When I 1st got it, I would periodically
and w/o warning loose stuff; a new battery solved the problem.  Now, I'm
loosing lib's again.  After only 4 months or so....  Whether its a problem
internal to the card, or just bad contact I don't know (see the recent
discussion here wrt ram-card contacts).)

Give me a week or so to get a PC for an hour or two....

These are probably mostly of interest the game designers who want to use
sums of dice for random determination & need the probabilities of each
outcome, but I'm sure someone will find a different use for it.  (I don't
remember much from the prob course I audited a few years back (Hmmm, class
if sull, but stick around and see what happens, we always loose ~50% of the
initial students.  Or so I was told.  About 5% left, & I wasn't 1st in
line.)
