2651	Documentation errors, potential application problems	georg.mainik@…	John Maddock	"Some formulae in the documentation of pareto_distribution are wrong, e.g. the true quantile is beta/(1-p)^(1/alpha). 

Further I have a remark on the implementation. According to the documentation page, computation errors are low except p is near to 1. Unfortunately, this is just the region of interest in extreme value applications, and the Pareto distribution is widely used there.

I have not tested the implementation yet, but there may be some problems with extreme value applications."	Bugs	closed		math	Boost 1.35.0	Optimization	fixed	Pareto Distribution	pbristow@…
