;;; Version  Date      Description
;;; 0.9.0    08/07/04  This is the initial release of the exponential
;;;                    distribution routines ported from GSL. (Doug
;;;                    Williams)
;;; 1.0.0    09/28/04  Marked as ready for Release 1.0.  Added
;;;                    contracts for functions.  (Doug Williams)
;;; 2.0.0    11/19/07  Added unchecked versions of functions and
;;;                    getting ready for PLT Scheme 4.0 (Doug Williams)
;;; 3.0.0    06/09/08  Changes required for V4.0.  (Doug Williams)
