text: A distribution in statistics is a function that shows the possible values for a variable and how often they occur.
text: In algebra and number theory, a distribution is a function on a system of finite sets into an abelian group which is analogous to an integral: it is thus the algebraic analogue of a distribution in the sense of generalised function.
